seaspray Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Hi all i am across the road from my relations and using their wifi signal. It is a weak signal but does get me on the net. Is there anything out there to boost the signal so i can get a better reception I am not on the net very much. Martin Quote Have a quiet day
KenB Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Hi i am across the road from my relations and using their wifi signal. Is this an un-secured signal ..........in other words does not need a network key to connect ?

BreatGritain Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 You could ask your relations to install a Wifi repeater and position it on the wall that is nearest to your house - though this won't make a difference if their router is already there. As a technicality we shouldn't be assisting with this? an ISP could be of the view that you're using a service you're not paying for, which, if you squint, isn't legal. Quote
seaspray Posted February 4, 2013 Author Posted February 4, 2013 Well it has got a key and a password It just to save me going a crross the road with my bad legs. usually i take the lap across to the house but have discovered i get a signal i do contrabute to the package across the road. The router is on the tv table and the signal is coming thru the wall straight inline to my laptop Martin Quote Have a quiet day
KenB Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 Hi Technically what you are doing is probably against the ISP's terms and conditions.

KenB Posted February 4, 2013 Posted February 4, 2013 You obviously didn't bother looking at the link I gave you. That would have been educational too. "10 Tips to improve wireless signal" I have removed it now - you are obviously not interested.
