I live in a dorm at school and i get dsl internet, I have both a laptop and a desktop computer. But the thing is, very frequently I bring my laptop to class to tke notes etc. it would be nice to be able to connect to the internet during class(when the teacher gets boring). Anyone ever setup, know how to setup, or have a tutorial to set up a wlan. The furthest signal I would need would be about a 1000ft. I see these wireless internet stuff you can buy on the internet for your house, but im assuming those only go a couple hundred feet max. Any ideas?
