two networks running from one access point?

[gaikokujinkyofusho]

Not sure how to explain this but... my neighbor and i would like to
setup my place/network/lan using an outside access point (buddy next
door [If your wondering, I have his ok]). Now if i just wanted to
connect one of my computers then no problem but i would like to be able
to setup a point so i can just plug my (mostly wireless) network into
say one router, and probably an antennae (the signal is ok, but could
be stronger).

So, is it possible to have one wireless router "feed" off the signal of
another wireless router and then i can plug my wired network into this
router (maybe i am getting the terminology mixed up, yes i'ma noob)?
Are there any howto-for-noobs on the web? Everything i have found so
far deals with getting one computer to connect with a router.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

I think you're posting in the wrong NG my friend, luckily no one hasn't
spammed you just yet. But at any rate I'll be a nice guy and kindly answer
your question. =)

If you're thinking of connecting your buddy's WAP into your WAP wirelessly,
no it is not possible since you'll need a PPPoe login access to get into his
dsl/cable account.

But connecting wired, yes it is possible. The main thing is have your buddy
next door's WAP to act as a dhcp router. The only challenge that you'll be
facing is finding a long cable to connect from your buddy's main WAP to
yours/your friend's WAP - not sure on how far apart are you guys.

GLuck!

Oops, sorry; thanks for answering anyway (and sorry to anyone out there
I offended)
