Guys thanks to your suggestions, I found the solution.

What I was asking in the beginning is possible to solve buying a router that supports WISP.

This will allow to connect the router as a device to the existing wifi network and distribute it on a new wifi (of course protected) network and to lan connected terminals (such as xbox for my boy or tv).

Thanks to you all for the contributions that lighted my bulb

Great news koo!

That seems the device I am searching for!

Would you be so kind to tell me the model of the router you have so I can search an actual device with similar features on the market nowadays?

Thanks a lot for your advice

Thank you ChicoG and JakeBKK... It would be indeed the best solution to get my personal line, but my rental contract does not allow me to

I will try to explain better my point here Because I realized maybe I did not describe well what I would like to do:

All my devices will be connected to the router/extender (or anything that will do the job ) This router (access point maybe?) will be connected to the main network...

Is what I already do with connectify on my pc. But obviously if I am out with my notebooks, only one device can connect to the main network because it doesn't have anything that distribute the connection...

If anyone else could come out with a suggestion I will be very grateful

Thank you all guys!

First of all, nice to write on the forum. I am a newbie as poster but I followed Thaivisa in the past years as a reader only.

I just changed apartment in Bangkok and I have to face a new situation.

Internet is already available in the building and distributed by wifi. I can access paying a monthly subscription that comes with a user ID and a password.

Having 2 laptops and 2 mobile phones and 1 iPad that I wish to keep always on, and having only the chance to connect only one device at a time with a standard configuration, I found 2 different solutions:

1) Use a virtual hotspot on one of my laptops to distribute the signal to the other devices

2) Use a router/extender for do the same thing.

As seen as sometimes I am out of home but my girlfriend would still use the internet on iPad and phones, the solution one is good only when I am home, so the second one would be more efficient.

Remark: the building system has some policy that make sure that every 6-7 hours the user logoff automatically, so have to logon manually when this happen.

Being not an expert of wireless networking, which device (wifi router/repeater) should I use in the way that:

- This device will be always connected to the main network

- Any connected mobile, pad, pc has to be able to login in case there is an automatic logoff

- The device have the possibility to share the connection ALSO to a wired lan (for devices as a TV for example).

Hopefully some hi-tech genius can help me on this matter, I asked in some shop but they show no competency

Thanks a lot in advance...
