So you still have POWER?

You can just connect a modem to your wireless router. I am going to guess you will have cable or whatever else for the internet to come in on?

If you are without power for some reason, you may be able to use a battery + voltage regulator to run a wireless access point. This battery will still need to be changed when it gets low.

If you just want to connect to systems(not with internet) you can setup an ad-hoc wireless network to allow the systems to talk to each other(this assumes you have power for a desktop or a laptop).

We may need MUCH more info since your post is very hard to understand.

haha sorry for that ok the thing is just is there a stuff there that can plug in a regular power on the wall without buying a walljack and put it by himself because he can't do that because they don't allow that here on his apartment that he is renting oh yeah there is enough power here but only thing we can not install a walljack. and then i saw this http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/19137873/TP-Link-TL-PA211... is there a possible way to use this with out installing a walljack right ? sorry if you don't understand much from this post is because my language is not english is icelandic so i hope you can understand :)

If they have no jacks for coaxial or phone ,you can get internet with those and connect it to a router. If not, the only other thing I can see is cellular internet, but that cost quite a bit more(WAY too much in some cases).

How do you get normal internet in those apartments? Does your ISP just install a modem?

If they do the modem can be connected to a router to give wireless. The modem to router connection does not require anything extra but power and whatever was already used to connect the modem.

Would that work for you?

i really don't know only thing people tell me is go on a nearest company that can provide you internet access for month payment and they will come and install it for you it is i don't want them to install the walljack because there is no jack for phone or coaxial so i saw this http://www.tp-link.com/en/products/details/?model=TL-PA... in a store here so i was wondering is this helpful or not can i use this without installing a jack on the wall :)

The product linked replaces the need for an Ethernet cable. So instead of running a cable from one room to another, you plug two of those(one per side) then use Ethernet on each end to connect to your devices(the device can actually be a router and modem if needed).

The problem is that device does not give you internet, it can only be used to get internet or a home network from room to room(wireless already does this, but HomePlug does so without as much chance of interference). It is more ideal for desktops or fixed devices as you do need a wire from the unit to the device on each side.

ok but is there any kind of plug for a modem like that without a phone or coaxial jack ?

Not that I know of because they need to get the internet from something.

Only one I know of that does not need anything but power are cellular modes(work on the mobile phone network).

How do people get a normal phone in these apartments?

I just want to make sure this is clear.

any place that you can get internet for a desktop, you can replace that desktop with a wireless router/access point and have wireless.

I find it hard to believe that they have apartments that do not allow phone/tv/internet(I thought no pets allowed was bad).

there is apartment that allow that but most of them are taken really hard to find and there is only the old people that don't allow that it is annoying so i told my friend to stay in this apartment for a month and just go look for an apartment that can have wifi but seriously most people here don't even know what router is and telephone only phone they know of is mobile phone really sad that's why they don't put a jack on the wall and education here is really bad so i heard from many people that came here just to teach english and gave up.

Well. I hope they DO find a better place because with such restrictions. Cellular is about the only(expensive) option.
