Hi

I cannot get wireless broadband because my house is a bit low and there are trees around the house in the direction I need to pick up the signal.

My neighbour is about 50Meters away but his house in on top of the hill so he should be able to get it.

He is willing to allow me to put the dish for recieving the signal on his house and then I was hoping I could use a wireless router to allow me to pick up the signal.

I have a wireless dongle in the pc and a tp-link WR542G wireless router. At present this has a 3dbi antenna on it and I can recieve a signal from one end of my house to the other through walls, doors etc.

Can anyone recommend an internal antenna that I can get that would allow the signal to cover the 50 meters between my nieghbours house and mine. If an internal antenna wont work can you recommend an external one.

Thanks
Michael
