My house is probably about 50 yards from my friends, and he has internet and I don't. I can't pick the network up with my mac's airport, but i can with the Wi-Fire wireless adapter that increases range by 300%. So internet sharing works fine and i have full bars with the ipod touch, but google takes 2 minutes at least to load, and thats a search engine(duH) MY garage is between his and my house, and I was initially planning to put a pc in there and share internet connection with my mac, but seems impossible. What could I possibly put in my garage (hopefully inexpenisve, and not another computer) to "bounce" the internet from my friends house to my house for a better signal strength? Thanks.
Got a tip for us?

What youre trying to do is illegal without his consent. And from what youve said, it sounds like he wont consent; or else youd tell him.
