Setup Antenna That Sends Wifi Signal From One House To Another?
Aug 5, 2012
I have 1 house that is about 1/4 or 1/2 a mile away from the other house.I would like to setup an antenna that sends a wifi signal from one house to the house that does not have internet.I have a picture link that i drew up at the top. I'm not the best at drawing stuff so bare with me.Im going to type a path of the internet out to show you what I would like to get setup.[CODE]
Have two desk top pc's in metal building office they are operating by way of DSL modem my provider is Century Link. I purchased a WRT 54Gl linksys wireless router hoping I would be able to get a WIFI signal to my house. I have no live phone lines in my home just the one in my metal building , how can I get a signal through the metal building to my home in order to use wifi on my Ipod and Iphone . Keep in mind I am 200 ft from my home and have a wooden shop and another metal building to go through to get to my home.
I initially had a laptop and a desktop with one Telkom router, running both wireless and wired (Ethernet cable)pics removed for security purpose.My daughters got laptops, and I bought a Netgear Wireless N300 Router/Modem for a better signal.The signal is good, but at the extremes of the house poor.I found on the internet a plan of a Windsurfer and built one. The results were not that impressive.So I thought to incorporate the first router (the Telkom router/modem) somewhere in the LAN for a boost.I changed the first (Telkom) router to a booster, but struggled (used advice from the internet) and stopped the exercise. Some settings were changed on the Telkom modem. So this was the situation for the past 2 years.
I have a Linksys wireless-g broadbrand router ( WRT54G ) in my bedroom along with my cable modem and everything runs fine in my room. But I also have a pretty old computer in another bedroom about maybe 15 or 20 feet away from the current setup. On that computer I have a wireless g adapter that's connect through a usb port and has very low signal strength. I sometimes use that computer and I'm always getting kicked off I'm guessing because the signal cuts out. So, today I plugged in the adapter in my room with my setup and had amazing signal. What can I do to give that other computer a good boost? I know I should update that computer but I'm guessing I also need to somehow boost the signal somehow.
We have a large house, with wired connections in every room. After the ISP just installed a new EA4500, the wireless signal does not reach the whole house.Is it possible to plugin the old X3000 into the wired connection upstairs and have it boost a wireless signal to that area?I know how to reset the unit and access the setup page.
my house has 4 ports in each room, 2 coaxial, 1 for the net, and one for a TV, and there's a phone jack and a Cat5e Ethernet port. From what I have learned, all my ports lead up to a "closet", and I have found it. It has all the connections for the LAN, and everything else. I am confused on what to do next. I see that there are blue Ethernet cords connected to the ports on one side, and that they are not connected to anything on the other. I thought I had to buy a switch for all these ports, and I haven't done so yet. where am I supposed to connect the modem to the internet. It is currently connected to the internet coaxial port, which it then connect to the VoIP switch, and is then connected to everything else. Where is the coaxial port that I have to plug it in to, and what is it labeled?.
I buy my wifi from the rv park that I live in how do I hook up an antenna to get a stronger signal to my router. I would have wifi coming in then my network going out .
I have a wifi signal set up in my home but my studio 200m away gets no signal. I bought a repeater on ebay but it's still too far to pick up the signal. I can't place the repeater between the two structures due to lack of an electrical outlet. If I get an antenna for the repeater (Linksys WRT54GS with W-DRT installed) do I simply attach it where the existing antennas are on the Linksys repeater or is it more complicated than that? It seems to me those antenna ports are for sending a signal not receiving a signal.
I have tested each antenna separately. With each antenna attached one at a time the left and right antenna is giving me -20 signal. The center is only giving me -65 signal. Is this a problem with the router or normal? I noticed that the center pin is pushed in more then the left and right. Don't know if that is the cause.
I have a Cisco Aironet 1242G and an outdoor omni 12 dbi antenna. I hooked it all up to day (antenna is connected with a 100ft cable). My signal is very disappointing. I have it behind a garage and can only get about maybe 75 foot away and the signal gets very weak.
Is there something that needs to be configured in the aironet? I have enabled external antenna and played with the settings. Is the 12 dbi antenna just too much?
where i am from, the houses are made of conrete. so obviously my wi-fi degrades. i currently have 1 basic wireless g linksys router set up, in my bedroom as thats where the primarry devices are. there is a portion of the house where the signal is non existant and i want to set up a 2nd wireless router for that area to have signal. its a fairly large house with 4 bedrooms.here is a breakdown of the device priority:
The main room (my room, east end of house) Gaming PC (gaming, downloading, netflix streaming) non wireless Wife's Laptop (occasional streaming, general internet surfing) PS3 (gaming and netflix streaming) Ipad (streaming)
[code]....
The general purpose of all this is just have wireless across the whole house for mobility, my room is the priority as far as bandwidth usage and coverage.Also i will be purchasing an N router for my room and moving the G router to my moms.
I've got an E4200 at my house. I'd like to know if it's possible for my to establish a VPN connection from a remote location to login to my E4200 to get access to my computers behind the firewall.
Just purchased two DIR-655's to spread the WiFi around the whole house. I realize now that the 655 is considered "older" when it comes to technology but I am really not using these for anything other than full coverage of our house. I am just looking for any recommendation people may be able to offer as to how to get the best out of these.
Same SSID everywhere so that the clients will see it one big network. Different channels so that there is no interference. No security enabled. (I am in the boonies, no neighbors and I have walked all the way out to the road with my laptop. You can't even see the network) My guess is that the clients will automatically switch to the AP with the strongest signal correct? Any utility that can tell me which AP I am connected to?I am running a Windows 2008 domain here in my house with the server performing DHCP and DNS functions. [code]
Any diagram showing the antenna position or signal pattern from the EA2700? I know that Cisco recommends that the unit be placed "near the ceiling" but I'm looking for more specific information. Should the unit be mounted vertically or horizontally.
I got a different tower to use ,and added my wireless card and external antenna to it , but need setting up the new PC tower to use the wireless card and antenna. How to set up the available connections so that I can use this in my garage too.
Is there a way to boost a wifi signal to a non detachable antenna pci wireless card?so i can get better signal of free access point,i don't want to go and buy another card with a detachable antenna,which i know i can do alot more to boost with these type of cards.
I know RD is used to make an IPv4 address unique in an MPLS VPN system.I don't understand why a PE sends the RD when advertises a route via BGP.I thought RD were only local significant. But I made a packet capture and the RD is actually sended inside the MP_REACH_NRLI attribute:
Why the RD is sent? I suppose that the PE receiving the update checks the Route Target Extended Community to know to which VRF associate the update and not the RD.I made a test between PE1 with RD 12:1 and PE2 with RD 13:1 and there was full routes exchanges, the same when both PEs were using the same RD(all this configured in the correct VRFs). The only difference is that PE2 now shows in their corresponding VRF BPG table "Route Distinguisher 13:1".
I'm planning to replace my flaky minipcie wifi and I need advice about the antenna.My laptop has two sets of antenna, one for 3G WWAN and the other is for normal wifiAccording to the labels, both is "Main" and "Aux". The card that I'm planning to get is an Intel 5300 which has 3 antennas.Since the normal wifi only has two antennas, can I use the 3G WWAN as a third antenna? If yes, should I plug in the "Main" or the "Aux"? If no, Should I buy those additonal antennas in Ebay for the 3rd one?
Let's say, an antenna like that Should I open the modem and therein there could be a slot for it to be plugged in? Because on the back side of the modem none of the slots will suit such plug.
i have a avraetec 2200 sereis wich has a amd turion65 processer with windows xp professional and one day the internet didnt work and i looked at the activity it said aquiring network adress and it said sending packets but not receiving and its not a problem with wireless because i conected directlty to the modem and i had the same probem and also there are other devices conected to the modem and they hav
I have one out of three Catalyst Express 520's I cannot connect to with Cisco Configuration Assistant or with a browser. I've used Wireshark to capture the problem, and it sends a TCP RST packet immediately upon any such connection attempt.
As these devices do not have a console port, how can I gain access to the device? We'd like to upgrade them but cannot pull the existing config.
Since these 520's don't support or are not configured for telnet/ssh and the only connection I can make is with a broswer and CCA, I'm wondering if there is a way to get the config into a text file as normally done.
I have the awus 1k awus036h wifi usb adaptor with the crappy stock 2db antenna. I was told by some randomer on a forum that getting a larger antenna doesn't increase the power output of the adaptor. IIRC this is directly against what I've read in the past but I forgot where so am unable to say one way or the other. I remember reading that the larger the antenna the more microwaves it radiates.Plus would it make it a health concern? Currently I have my adaptor in the other room maybe 2-3 metres from me separated by a plaster wall. enna I can if it is deemed safe or as much so as before pretty much since I have been using it for a while w/o probs. I was thinking of getting something in the range of 10db-14 db- maybe even going for an outdoor antenna but keeping it inside so long as it is affordable which they seem to be.
My camera uses Lots of data without anyone viewing the camera.I have it connected to a mobile data limited subscription with 2Gb of transfer each month. When traffic goes over it will limit bandwidth to 64 kbit/s.
After I connected the camera my data usage rise very high and just in a day or two the 2Gb limit was reached.The speed was then decreased to 64 kbit/s. And the next 3 weeks until my limit was reset the total data usage was up to 4Gb.That means that in 3 weeks 2Gb data was sent from the camera in only 64 kbit/s.How could this be?I have motion detection on that will email me images, that gives me some false positives some days with sun and shadows. But that should add up to a few Mb as maximum for a month.
I also have remote power on/off on this specific camera. I have now turned it off and the sent data from my modem has stopped.WHERE does the D-link camera stream live to? It's password protected and no one except me has the password.I can't see open sessions in my router (Dovado 4GR) and my mobile broadband supplier (Telenor) can not see where the data is transferred.But the camera is sending data somewhere, WHY? and how can I turn that off?
I have been having wireless issues for a while now and decided to buy a TP-Link router to work with this, unfortunately the wrong model was sent out, it's for Cable use only as it is just a router not modem too!I attempted to send it back but as I didn't know it was wrong until I opened it they won't take it back now as I should have checked first apparently.I did some research online and found information that I can use it as my wireless transmitter as long as I use my SKY router as the modem (with it's wireless function switched off).I have attempted the set-up as described in the manual for the TP-Link and I am now speaking to you using the Ethernet port on it, yet none of my wireless devices can see it in the available networks, both the "system" and "WLAN" lights are flashing to say the router is working but I still have no wireless signal.
I just got a new-to-me multifunction printer that's "network ready" (ie, has an ethernet cable port.) I also got myself an asus wl-520gu router. For now the router has the factory installed firmware on it, but i could put tomato or ddwrt on it. also in my house I have a linksys router already set up with a WEP encrypted wireless SSID which me and my 5 roommates share. I guess for the purpose of this post we can call that network "Kermit" and pretend it has password "ilovepiggy" This router sits on the second floor landing in our three story house. My printer and this asus is going to be in my room, which is on the first floor. I'd like to
a) get better signal strength/speed in my room
b) network my printer so that I and others can print to it / scan from it wirelessly over the network. Can I do both things? and what would that setup be like? Would it mean making the ASUS a wireless repeater? at what point in the process and how do I add the printer?
In first setup, error meaasge " we could not find your router :setup could not find your router's wireless signal ..." i checked cable and internet signal. i find one problem : the light of internet port of router is not blinking.i reset my router but problem is not solved.
I have a wireless router that rests across the house next to the modem. The signal is too weak to reach to the other side of the house. Is there a way to boost the signal so I can get wifi from across the house or any other way to get an internet connection without several fifty foot wires going across the house?
I want to connect myself on my friend router by wifi but i cannot see the network what should i do ,what usb receiver anntena is the best or what i nedd to buy and is working 100 % maybe is 400 meter is the distance but sure is not 1 mile
i get a bunch of lag when i play counterstrike, etc. In game, my ping is always tripling other players'. I know it isnt my computer because it is basically amazing. Im pretty sure it is my wifi because i'm in the top floor of my house and my router is in the basement. I'm using a usb wireless card. What can i do to get a better signal.
My parents ditched their Comcast cable last year. Their house association has provided 'Wifi' for everyone in the neighborhood as part of the association fee. However, signal is very weak, even though they are one of the closest to the Wifi Antennas. They have a laptop, two desktops, and one Ipad. Their laptop seems fine. Both of the desktop, however, are very slow. It's slower than 56k. It's almost unbearable. They still have all their modems/router from Comcast. I am wondering a way to get the Wifi signal, and use the Comcast Router to create a Wifi in their house again so they can print wireless and use netflix and things like that. I don't know the exact definition for it. I'm just wondering if it can be done.
