The IT shop at the shopping mall as a public wifi connection that I maybe connect to at my house almost 1 street near (really near) ...
My laptops could not find the connection but I expect that a high powered USB wifi adapter and a yagi antenna would do well, what I should check and do before I try this ?
Note: If you have a decent and cheap idea to do that, talk proudly about it !

This may just be bunkum but it would be cool if you could prove it either way while you're researching a solution http://www.5min.com/Video/How-to-Boost-Your-Wi-Fi-Signal-6232739

To actually talk on the network may be a different story. But it still proves a good point: When it comes to sniffing wireless traffic, it doesn't matter how low the signal is if Eve has a really good set of ears. – Iszi – 2010-12-28T08:48:34.467
