You can't get much cheaper than:

http://www.freeantennas.com/

There are two designs that fit over the WRT54G's existing external 
antennas: 1) a parabolic reflector:

2) a corner reflector

Claimed gain is 12db for the parabolic, 10db for the corner reflector.

The corner reflector is much easier to construct. Give it a try.
