It’s been long since I have shared my exp. But it is always better late then never. I have been recently involved in couple of things. I did mail my comps friends regarding the same and did get a great response on varied issues. Here goes my exp:
Using the same broadband connection across two bldgs:
After I came back home some of my street frnds were fed up paying 700/- each for broadband connection. Also they all wanted to play LAN games while sitting in their rooms. To resolve this issue we though of making one computer as proxy and use that for connecting to internet. Also all other computers were thought of being connected with each other using a router.
But having a wired router and laying down wires across the street involved maintenance of wires and a risk of losing the wires to intuitive people. Hence we all thought of using a Wireless router. The idea seemed to have clicked with the distances not that much. Also we were ready to invest some money in signal enhancer at some point where the signal was getting weak. But I think god wanted to test us more. Because of the concrete walls and pillars the signal got weaker than what we had expected and that meant a LOT of enhancers.
The only option left now with us to have tied up with some companies which have their fiber optics being laid down and use that as data carrier. But the expense of 700/- per person seems to less in front of last option. :)
