pelican to make wii wifi antenna??

[ciper]

I have an alternative to the OP and anyone interested. Get a WRT54G and install the 3rd party firmware to turn it into a bridge.

I did this exact same thing years ago to connect my PS2 and Tivo to my neighbors wireless that lived quite a ways down the street.

If you are interested I suggest HyperWRT + Thibor http://www.linksysinfo.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=135

how hard was it to connect to the internet?? im a complete noob w/ computers (and by that, i mean reallllllly nooob) but i do have a wireless router, would it be easy/hard for me to connect to ther internet if i just followed the user manual?

if you already have a high speed connection connected to a router through an ethernet cable, your already there almost.............just a few steps away. i have SYMPATHY for anyone trying to get online desperately.

im still very new to the forums, but if you can, try to pvt msg me and ill see about helping.

An attachment that can pick up from a mile?

Heck, you're better off just getting a plain old wireless G router.

'Cause goodness knows how much it would cost.

Pelican is not an WiFi company, you should really consult some of the companies that specialise in hi-gain outdoor antenna:


Try this one:

Good Luck!

DCHAO has a good point. I remember seeing someone who took a hawking brand antenna and attached it to one of the internal connections on the WII for better coverage.
