In general, what a better antenna does is concentrate the signal in a given
direction at the expense of other directions.  That's why you'll often see
them referred to as "directional" antennas.  To be really effective, you may
need them on both ends (wireless clients as well as the access point), which
can be inconvenient.  If you want a stronger signal in general, then you need
more transmit power, again perhaps on both ends.  That's why it often makes
more sense to (a) relocate the access point; (b) switch to units with longer
range [e.g., new MIMO technology]; (c) add a repeater; or (d) add another
access point.
