I have an office that moved recently. Before it was using a Linksys wrt54g wireless router, dsl from the telco (telus). Now it is adjacent to another office set up the same way. Rather than continue to pay double we'd like to share the cost and the connection. Can anyone suggest whether or how I can program my router to pick up the wifi signal from the next office and get it into my box? F7 if it matters.

you need to put your wireless access point in "client mode".
you will probably need a standalone wireless access point.
(combo wireless/router/dsl/switch/kitchensink devices usually cannot do this)
i use a linksys WAP54G to do this:(page 40 of the WAP54G-v3_ug.pdf details "client mode")
