Hi everyone

Actually in our area there is a wireless connection but its signals is not that much strong to reach till my room:confused:

So I need a way to get a solution for that but not with a lot of expensive "some technical suggestions"

Thanks guys

Let me get this straight. When you select to view available networks from your room, there is one listed, but its too weak for you to connect to it. Is that right? And you want us to help you access that network?

Umm, do you understand that you are asking us to help you STEAL! Whoever's network that is, is paying for their internet access. It's a PRIVATE network. It would be illegal for you to access that network without permission.

If you want your own Internet access then subscribe to a carrier.

No no scott you didn't understand clearly
Am living in a hostal of international uni, islamabad

We have a wireless connection but it does cover just one floor
It did not reach to my floor so I have to go upstairs to use it

So that's were my Q?.

Don't mind but now I want ans on straight way and better then previouse one
Thanks

There are two choices:

1) Repeater, but you need to know the MAC address of the signal your repeating with something like Netstumbler.
2) An interface that allows an external antennae. One that's highly directional.

It's very possible that even though you cannot receive a signal on a laptop, a repeater located very close by can. I have a situation where my repeater is literally 5 feet from my laptop, but the laptop cannot receive a reliable signal with the repeater off.

Scope out the room with Netstumler and a laptop and occasionally reorient the laptop to change the directionality of the antennae. The antennae is usually in the lid.

A combination may also work. I'm not sure of any wireless cards that will accept an external antennae.

I think its more a matter of you didn't make it clear enough. What I think you need to do is talk to the network administrators for the university. If they are providing wireless access and some rooms are out of range, then its up to them to add repeaters or more range to the routers.

What I'm suspecting may be the case here is that someone with a ethernet wired room has put in a router that may or may not be sanctioned by the university. And that's what you are seeing.

The point here is that this is the university's network. And they are the ones to approve access to it.

If you were intended to have access -- why does it seem like you do

Not have the permission -- and have chosen to bypass the administrator

I still feel you are taking something -- not intended for your use

Using bandwidth that was intended for an office area -- not you!!
