Wi-Fi is mushrooming - 120 million users
At least that’s how many wireless chipsets are expected to be sold by year’s end. And it’s all happened in six years, according to new data released by In-Stat and the Wi-Fi Alliance, making the technology a staple of computer networking and a powerful presence in millions of homes and businesses. With a 64% average yearly growth rate, it’s now in 90% of all notebooks sold today.
That said, there are still some lingering security issues, as municipalities around the country and even entire counties rush to make WI-Fi coverage ubiqutous.

Hello frank,
That should work. If you can pick it up from your backyard then with this you should beable to pick it up from your house.
I hope that you are not illegally using this for free internet access.
You can also go to www.freeantanas.com and get a print out which you put over your router this will almost double the wireless signals.
If you go to flumesoft.com we are having an experiment on this.
I hope all of this information help
