connecting to a neighbors wireless internet

[cagiboy]

Hi
I have connected to my neighbors wireless internet connection. he lives next door and i'm allowed to use it. i have another computer at the basement that i want to connect to his router too, but it can't get the signal.

what i want to know is can i buy a wireless router and a crossover cable to connect to his router? or how do i connect the computer at my basement to his wireless router?

[obligatory] This will get him in trouble with his ISP [/obligatory] And no, you can't use a router. You may be able to use a repeater if you know what router it is.

Welcome to Network Forum.

It is a little sad that your first Post here involved ?Cheating? an ISP.

I hope that you will do better in the future.

well, perhaps from me...

I run a business that does just these types of things you talk about.

We hook up free dsl and cable for many individuals, and they agree to sell it to their neighbors.

Of course, this is entirely legal, covered under the Free Internet Sharing Act, Article 5, Section 3.12

Have a link ? I bet the ISP's Aup overrules this.

What the hell is the Free Internet Sharing Act?
