I remember back in those days when wireless used to be free at starbucks, now they're charging a hefty price for each hour. Ridiculous!
Anyways, I live approximately 3 blocks from 2 starbucks and 2 blocks away from Nations and I was wondering if anyone could help me brainstorm a solution to extend my wireless router's signal to those places where I can enjoy a cup of coffee and surf on my own wireless. I'm currently using a Linksys WRT54G wireless router and I'm thinking of purchasing these following items (PLEASE.. correct me if I'm wrong, I'm such a noob at this):
1 802.11g (b/g) 1 Watt Outdoor Amplifier with N-Female Connectors
1 Power Supply and DC Injector
1 Omni directional Antenna
What else do I need? What kind of cables? What's the cheapest place to buy quality parts? Do I need some sort of TNC to N-female connector? I'm thinking of ordering from hyperlinktech.com. Is this legal? Will doing this get me in trouble? What do I need on the laptop end or will my integrated wireless card be ok? Help would be greatly appreciated. I'm done most of my research on the web but would now like some p-2-p advice. Thanks guys and girls!
