Look, this is getting silly now. I already admitted it was possible to do using expensive, illegal, flaky setups (even if AdmV somehow thinks he can buy a £30 d-link from Dixons and do it, as long as he gets magical line of sight). Is Chris going to copy your friend's setup for his mother in law? Is he going to be allowed to? Is he going to easily find the hardware? Are the planning permission people going to let him put up powerful antennae when the schools are already worrying about the health hazards of basic wifi?
So let's just tune back into reality FM here. Wifi isn't meant for this distance. It's not practical, it's not sensible. Next.
