I have a question for any who can answer. I live in Louisiana North of New Orleans. I have recently puchaced a mobile home and put it on some land that I already owned.
Here is the situation: I have tried to get internet access and have gotten the brick wall all the way around. Local and only cable company has told me that I am 100ft to far away from their nearest split and therefor could not get cable tv or cable broadband internet, first brick wall. Local and only telephone company has my phone service, but told me I was not able to get there DSL, the second brick wall. Satallite internet is only offered by HughesNet out here and is very expensive. Dial-up is out of the question for my needs.
My question is my in-laws have Cable broadband internet, and are about a hundred yards away with only 3 or 4 trees in the way. The rest is clear fields. Is there anyway that I could get their internet to my house be it over the air or some possible wired route. I did not think you could run Cat5e very far without having to boost the signal.
Any replies are deeply appreciated.
