Yes, this works in any country, since the strainer just collects more wifi radio signal power that's going through the air, and concentrates it on the USB wifi stick's internal antenna. These signals are the same no matter what country you're in, since the electronics involved are the same worldwide.

Just wanted to add that I tried this myself with an Belkin 802.11g wireless adapter and it greatly improved the wireless signal of the adapter, even through walls. I have an old computer outside in my workshop which I wanted to add wireless internet to, but didn't want to shell out the cash for a newer "draft-n" adapter since the computer is so old anyway. The router is inside the house about 50 feet away, and it was almost impossible to get a reliable signal out here. After watching the video and following the instructions, the internet works almost flawlessly. Thanks--great video!!
