1 Answers
hi all,
i live 2 doors away from my business and at home i have virgin broadband and at work i have Bt hub broadband?
before we had virgin at home my stepson tried his laptop to connect to my bt (work) but it didn't work when he was at home.
is there any way you can boost the signal so i could get rid of 1 of them?
it's approximately 45 metre's away as the crow flies?

the maximum length of an ethernet cable is 100m - so as long as you can run a cable accross neighbour's premises ... that's the best way. then a switch or a wap lets you cover the other building
to do it wirelessly ... is less reliable ... some people will tell you they connect to a neighbour in the next street ... others can't get a signal in the next room.
you can get high gain aerials (hawking is the rolls-royce brand)

but there are no guarantees without line of sight
