Hello, my brother just got internet access for his place, and I agreed to pay a share of the bill for access. However, he lives in a cottage behind the main house (where I live) and the signal from his wireless router doesn't reach the main house...so I'm basically paying for internet I cannot use.
My idea was to run an ethernet cable from his router to a second router in the main house, the problem is I would need a 100ft ethernet cable which is not only expensive, but it would have to run from one building to the other, meaning it would either be outside or underground - and I don't think they make weatherproof ethernet cables, and if they do it would probably be even more expensive.
Is this my only option, or is there a more practical method to do this?
Thanks for any help in advance.
