Answer 1

This realy works i use it when i have reached my down load limit i then go wireless and use any open link to the internet i can find...

You need a ethernet cable, your mobile phone , a pudding basin ,

and some tin foil .

take the ethernet cable and wrap it around your mobile phone start at the bottom and wrap it around in a coil to the top of the phone and plug in the ethernet cable to your computer.

it hijacks your phones ping which has a great range .

and it will act as your anntenna.

to increase the range still further just line the basin with tin foil and suspend your phone using sellotape with the cable wraped around it in the centre and then point it in what direction you'd like to pick up a signal.

there are a lot of open access points out there you might not even have to use your nans...

Answer 2

Get a wireless N, their faster

Answer 3

Look for wireless boosters or wireless signal boosters. Mainly they are just third party antennas that replaces the stock antenna on the wireless router which helps boosts the wireless signals. I have not used one personally so I would read up on it.

Answer 4

Well... it might be possible with a good booster, perhaps a "cantenna" if you have the skills, but frankly I don't think it's worth the hassle.  You'd be getting into some tricky legal ground and security would be pretty much impossible.

Answer 5

You wouldn't get a good signal anyway. Too many obstructions, Electrical interference etc, as well as you interfering with other people. You may well be breaking the Wireless Telegraphy Act and because you are transmitting a signal beyond your boundries no matter how short it is, you may well need a licence.
