Wifi siphon project

Why are anime fags so stupid?
You couldn't even post 3d but you want our help?

/g/ is not your personal tech support or anime dump.

>goes to catalog
>sees 1 3D
>sees 8+ anime

Sorry if I went mainstream in picking what seemed more popular. I don't intend to use /g/ as a tech support but I think it's a cool little project I'd like to do!

If I could've figured it out myself think I'd have asked? My networking knowledge is rusty since its been a while since I've done anything even similar to this.

>>56351049
Ask them if you can use it?

The CTO is a pretty chill dude so he wouldn't care much about that. It's more of the fact that I need a bridge or repeater.

Only issue is that it's mostly open area save for a few other shared houses along the way. Which is the problem he wouldn't be quite willing to get involved in which is what leaves me in my current predicament.

Can you see the networks? If not, you night want a better antenna. I'm sure you can access the passwords someow, being staff, but if you can't see if reaver can help.

Also, 2d is fine and who doesn't like it should fuck off

We have to supply our own internet, so in the shared house we all have the highest package (50GB on EE), it's the best data plan I can get since I'm here on a temporary basis.

The 200 or so meters in primarily open area is the key issue between the shared house I'm in and the lodge.

Something like this might work.
First google result though, you might want to look around.
>not compatible with windows 10

I'm assuming your issue is that you want to extend the signal to your own lodge? or do you need the password for the network?

if distance is the issue, unfortunately you'd need to buy something like a wifi antenna or a wifi extender. You're looking at about $30 plus shipping time

This or if you or somebody have an old router laying around you can flash it with DD-WRT and use it as your wifi adapter and or as a repeater. Most routers have a repeater mode now but they often want a lot of details about the base router to connect, with DD-WRT on it you can connect to anything just by receiving the signal.
They get much better RX/TX than your average inbuilt wifi adapter and work good for things like this.

oh damn this is cool. I'll have to keep this in mind for myself. I've got a few lying around

>>56351804
No win10? Wait seriously? I'll post a question maybe someone has done it with win10 anyway. If it supports 8.1 I can probably use those drivers/software. I didn't quite consider it because I just genuinely don't know much about the subject so I appreciate the help!

>>56353130
I need to extend it to my own lodge. I know the password so that isn't the biggest issue.

>>56353199
I didn't bring any with me since I'm from another country, sounds like a good idea though!

>>56351804
Same as >>56354814

What do you think about this? It 'claims' 3,000m away (I'd guess roughly half that in real-world and a bit less with rain etc)

I /think/ it may cover me but since this is to connect to my desktop, would I also need another usb antenna to connect to it?

Alrighty, it seems like

Will solve my issues. I'll get it since it's on sale and has ethernet ports (plus seems to have good range too). For anyone interested, should I make a follow up in the event that someone needs a strong wifi repeater/siphon etc?

Miku is not anime.

Let's not trigger him more, shall we?

Get a good USB Wlan dongle with e.g. RP-SMA antenna connector. Then buy a fucking yagi ('high-gain yagi') antenna or so and mount it on a little tripod.
All you need to do then is to place the antenna somewhere like in the front of a window (unobstructed view to the hotspot) and point it to the direction of the hotspot.

>>56355388
I've always wondered this, if you only have that antenna from your home pointed at the hotspot, does it work? Does the antenna just send and receive from that far away on a normal hotspot? Been considering building one of those homemade ones for fun but I didn't want a pair that had to be facing each other to work.

Well shit.

>>56351049
Make yourself a directional antenna.

>>56355388

I went for

Should I cancel it? My main concern is what I need has to be able to:
Penetrate foilage
Reach a minimum of 200 meters with good signal strenggth

I'm willing to drop a lil bit and not try to be a NEET over it. It's just that I'm fedup of watching videos in 360p (amongst other shit) and still hitting my datacap and thus, having to pay more each time.
