need help: wirless signal sharing

[Kakashii]

hello, i am trying to share my internet with my aunt, she lives a block from here. i have wirless antenna plug in to the wireless router to give off signal, plus over at my aunt home is the big problem. i have a wireless antenna there so they can use it to pick up signal from my home with a wireless card, but they have three computers, and without an antenna on each computer, they can't pick up my home signal.

here is my question: how can they use only one antenna to send off wireless signal that they pick from my house to all three computers. what i need to buy? i want some thing that can hookup to the wireless antenna and give off all signals it picked up from that antenna to there wireless computers and laptops.


thanks.

That will cost more that geting them ADSL of there own and you would need line of sight from you to them

Looks very similar in size to a Sky minidish. So I suppose one of those would work too.

Yer that will work all you need is a full wifi network both ends and 2 of them and firewall and line of sight and someone to setup and network and you can do it


All that will happen is the other systems will be come part of your network set a system up to proxy server share the network and route all traffic out on to the internet vier it (but rember to set firewall and wep keys up or all the street will be on your network)

ok, what if they could pick up some open free hotshots around the area, how can they use the wifi on all there computer with out getting three antenna, what hardware(device) will i need to buy so i can plug that hardware in to antenna at there house and they can share the attanna wirelessy on all three computers. plus they need to b e able to pick differnt hot spot for each computer if tahts possible.

Or

if thats not possible, what else can i do. i saw you mention that i can bridge the connections, but which will be better, bridge or the hardware(device) system!

also i don't know how to bidge the wires,

thank you

You will need to put the 3 computers on a cat or wireless networking in the house then plug a router in the hub.

Then do the same your end and set up a VPN bridge so the to networks can talk the at your end set one computer to act as a web router the point all traffic at that to use internet.



If you can find a loca free hot spot buy them set there router to use the hot spot and not the VNP to router to the internet

There is 2 parts to this network there is the part of the 3 systems in the house and the bridge part to the internet.

all the inturn IP set to 192.168.0.2 and up then set your router to 192.168.0.1 this will share modem so rest can route

i alrady know most of that, the point was how can i do it with the antenna, how can i use one antenna with three pc/laptops and have each computer pickup a different or same signal! i can't get any hot spot range without teh antenna!
