Hey all, im nto really clued up on the logistics of ADSL lines and the limitations on access points etc... so hopefully one of you guys can give me some helpful info
Basically, my wireless router is downstairs, im upstairs, poor signal, driving me insane. As a temporary fix ive got a few 24-port network switches and connected them up to an old laptop with a USB wifi adapter, this laptop is situated a bit closer to the router than my PC could be. So uing ICS etc i managed to take the wireless connection go through the laptop and into the switches, out of the switches to my PC via ethernet.
Well, i'm not sure why i didnt think of this earlier but I hvae a phone point in my room, fully working, i used to use it when we were on dialup.... So im thinking i could have my own router, or at least some kind of access point in my room for all of my systems in there.
Basically I need to know what equipment i need. From the phone point i would immediatel need a micro filter (obviously) but the connection out of a microfilter is the smaller phone type (RJ-11 i think) obviously i need RJ45 to go into my switches etc.... I dont really want to pay out for an actual router
Any ideas
