[Alug] Wireless networking

Hi all, As I live just a few streets away from an ADSL-enabled area, I'm pondering going halves with a friend that can get ADSL and then setting up a wireless connection from his house to mine. The trouble is, I know *nothing* about wireless networking ;-) If anyone out there in ALUGland does, could you give me a few hints? I want to know: * what are my options? * what range I can get? * what hardware is required? * likely cost? Looking forward to someone telling me it'll cost 50p and give me gigabytes a second to play with... Andrew. -- All views are my own .... who else would want them?
