No Internet service, but picking up a wireless signal
Hello!
My wife and I are in the process of moving. I unfortunately had our broadband service disconnected a little prematurely.
In any event, I powered up my pc in my shop (which uses a linksys wusb11 V.2.6 antenna) in order to play a game.
After doing that, just for kicks, I then went into my network settings, System>Administration>Networking and removed my default network configuration, (which was my name Plus a WEP key).
Then I entered 'Network name'= Linksys and nothing else.
I can now access the internet, although things have slowed down significantly.
I'm assuming that I have connected to a neighbors network. So, My question is; is there any way to speed up this connection? Make it stronger?
Thanks!
