No not really, what you get is what you will be getting. You can improve speeds to a point if you only have 2-3 bars signal and get an antenna/amp and boost it to 4 bars signal. But pings pretty much stay the same.

What kind of RSSI signal are you getting? Your PING will get better as you improve the signal strength. An indoor or outdoor antenna will help.

If you know the direction of the tower you're connecting to a directional grid antenna will improve signal quite a lot if you get it set up in a good location. You have to find out what MHz band your tower is using first though so you know whether to buy a 900Mhz or 2.4Ghz grid antenna.
