Okay, so there is a xfinity wi-fi hotspot network from my next door neighbor open and he said he'd be fine letting me connect to it with my account. My brother set one up for me (He is paying for Comcast internet and gets the hotspots). So I basically want to get the xfinity wi-fi network in my house and connect it to my router wirelessly. So I have found some products that I think could make this scenario work. However, I am not really that familiar with networking hardware so I want to make sure it would work before buying them. I have a link to the page with all 4 links below. So basically I have the antenna which is 21 dbi and it connects via coaxial to the access point. Then from there I would have an Ethernet cable running into the router. Would this work. Please check all the links to the products on the google docs page.

Your link does not work.

More importantly, this likely violates your neighbor's (and your brother's) agreement with Comcast. While you can certainly (questionable) use your brother's credentials to assess Comcast access points, you are certainly trying to do something that could get your brother and/or your neighbor in trouble with Comcast.

Technically, you are also going to have a problem passing the Comcast account info from your proposed router to your neighbor's.
