    you have wireless network?

    i have a wireless network in home and it works great, 3 laptops and 2 desktops, pretty much working all fine!

    how do i make it so i can travel with my laptop and still get signal? i go like 2 blocks from my house and have no connection at all.

    is there a new card i have to get so i can go a few miles from home?

    thanks.

            I have WLAN as well, but it wont work from very long distances. When i go out from my home, i use GPRS=mobile internet connection wit bluetooth connection to my laptop. It works anywhere in here.
            If you are centre in big city you can try to scan available WLAN networks, and use them to get access to internet. Usually most of WLANS are unsecured.

              Do you loose the connection from your PC to your router ? Or is it your outgoing line that you loose ?

                  um...you have to get a special card and sign up for one of the mobile wireless services...like sprint

                  fact is you are on a LAN wireless connection...LOCAL area network....so when you are not local anymore, it won't work

                    a wireless router is meant to reach 50 ft or so, not 5,000 ft.

                        I went with wireless, because all the cords wasn't cutting it.

                                you could get a tmobile, verizon or cingular wireless card to put in your comp and got anywhere with it.

                                  wow, some of the repsonses in here make me question the intelligence level of some of the users of this board

                                  let me point something out to you all...you have to have a internet connection (i.e. cable, dsl, etc) in order to have wireless

                                  you don't go from cable TO wireless

                                  you MAKE your cable connection wireless by adding a wireless device

                                      who is your wireless connection through? what company do you pay monthly?

                                          If you want distance you need to take the antena off your router and attach a larger antena that can handle the distance.

                                          Most noobs dont secure their wireless internet anyway... just use other ppls net

                                            my point is that you HAVE to have an existing internet connection in order for your wireless connection to surf the web...regardless if they tell you that all you have a single wireless connection, the fact is that you have a internet connection with wireless capabilities

                                            what is the company name and show me where I woulkd sign up for your service...

                                                    what is the company name and show me where I woulkd sign up for your service...

                                                    Why are you so interested in what ISP I use? Unless you live within a 40 mile radius from here, which I would bet you don't, then you're out of luck. And if you do then without a doubt you've already heard of them.

                                                        cause i am curious as to know what isp you use so I can see their setup...

                                                        you seem to be very reluctant to show me, why is that? cause you know i am right...

                                                          let me point something out to you all...you have to have a internet connection (i.e. cable, dsl, etc) in order to have wireless

                                                          you don't go from cable TO wireless

                                                          you MAKE your cable connection wireless by adding a wireless device

                                                          I knew you would get owned on that statement. seen it coming five mins ago

                                                                        how do i make it so i can travel with my laptop and still get signal? i go like 2 blocks from my house and have no connection at all.

                                                                        is there a new card i have to get so i can go a few miles from home?

                                                                                  I have a wireless router that connects to cable modem that makes my laptop wireless, i can go anywhere in my place, and in my backyard but not to far.

                                                                                  I am pretty sure the first post was about this.
