Depends if you can get it into a position where it happens to get a slightly better signal with the longer cable... but it might simply be the hardware isnt up to the task and therefore will never achieve a stable connection. Still, USB extension cables are always useful to have around and they are quite cheap so it's probably worth trying it first.

If you *do* wind up replacing it a dual or tri antennae PCI or PCIe card is probably the way to go, saves having silly USB sticks jutting out of your PC at odd angles and doesnt have to share bus bandwidth with other devices on the same internal USB host... assuming your confident enough to install something inside your PC that is. I personally think USB WiFi adapters are a bit silly since laptops have WiFi built in these days and PCI cards are generally much better value for money and give superior performance.
