  1. A wifi antenna is only the device in your laptop that allows you to detect Wifi networks.  

    Each wifi network that your laptop detects can be either secured or unsecure.

    Each secure network typically has a password associated with it that you need to enter to gain access the the network.

    So, to answer your questions a Wifi antenna alone does not get you free internet..


  2. The Pringles Cantenna will pick up signals within 200 feet of it.

    You are piggy-backing on your neighbor's DSL. We password-protect our network. It is 200+Mbps with downloads of 55Mbps and uploads of550Kbps.

    It is $45/month from Cavalier, a regional telcom.
