[tech] wireless signal booster

so i recently moved into a new apartment and have noticed
that there is a strong, consistent open wireless connection
but only when im right next to one wall.

does anyone know of any wireless signal boosters which would
allow me to piggy back on this network? im doing a bit of
googling, but only coming up with units which are just high
powered antennas meant to be physically plugged into the
router.

so yeah, any advice? id love to get my internet situation
squared away, esp if its without paying for high priced dsl
or cable.

alas, one of the few failings of the macbook: limited
expansion. :(

thanks for the vid tho, i hope it helps. something seems
appropriate about watching it in 20 second bits while it
buffers.

Hang on!!! your that 'hedphukker' that teased us all with
oink invites then said no.

even when i offered you my neighbours cat., a fake linux
pengiun AND a special program called soulseek version 156c


only on the internet can people get away with such
atrocity's

"does anyone know of any wireless signal boosters which
would
allow me to >piggy< back on this network"

You now want us to help you !!?? so you can run your (piggy)
oink system far more reliably adn efficiently in the comfort
of your sty..

have you tried maplin yet? they have all types of things
like that.

how silly of me , i'm so forgetful ....

i have this wonderful program called 'RooaRR' it can
actually filter out any noise in the reception ( kinda like
line balancing ) and all software configuable, no need for
any extra hardware and its user tweakable too.

you'll love it.
