wifi range extender

the_caldou

Hi guys

 

I've just moved in my new flat and my fiber optic acces point is "miles" away from my room where my computer is. Do you have any good ideas to get internet in my room apart from a cpl that doesn't work for I don't know what reason

 

Thanks a lot

Buy a really long ethernet cable.... and ducttape

 

Works everytime...

 

But seriously, for just web browsing any wireless N extender will do.

But you would get better bandwidth/speeds with an powerline networking kit

A cable along the wall and stuff?

If you have an old Wi-Fi router kicking around you can set it up as a clone to extend the signal into another end of the house. But that still requires you running an Ethernet cable to it from your current and existing router. Its very simple. Google has all the answers. If you don't then well, these guy's above me made some good suggestions.
