Range extension without antennas?
My nextdoor neighbor rents a cabin up north and the owner has another cabin a couple of lots away with an internet connection and a wireless AP, and he's offered the neighbor use of the connection.
Problem is that neither the AP nor the neighbor's PC have the ability to take an external antenna and the cabins are simply too far apart to make a connection.
Any suggestions for making a connection over this distance that doesn't cost a bundle, and is within the capabilities of a non-engineer?
The neighbor's PC is a MacBook of some sort; I don't know if it can take a PCMCIA WiFi adapter, although I suppose he could spring for a USB-connected one if it comes to that.
