MacBook Wireless very slow, others not.

Wasn't sure where to post this, but decided to post it here because of the following. Ever since I got a MacBook in June of 2008, my wireless connection(s) had been very unreliable and slow most of the time. I figured it must not be my computer, it must have been the connection(s), but after living with six others, four of which have PC's I noticed that they were getting a strong connection while I was getting a poor connection sitting directly next to them. I have heard of many with a similar issue and many ways to attempt to "fix" this issue, but I would rather have advice from this site over any other. Please help.

What "fixes" have you heard? If it has always been like this, I'd be taking it back to Apple to get tested.
