>I see a few possiblities:

You left out:

a)  reorient the SMC's antenna.  Often you need to rotate the
unit several different ways until you find the "right"
orrientation for your particular house.

b)  locate the SMC in a different room of the house

I highly suggest you join the bawug mailing list and ask your
questions there. <http://www.bawug.org/>  There are tons of
802.11 savvy users who are also mostly in the Bay Area and thus
can recommend products that can be obtained locally, etc.
