Do I need to install a router? I live in Mobile home park and am close to McDonalds and they have wireless. Can I tap their signal?

You will need to install a bigger antenna on your wireless card to boost the signal, small price to pay for free internet! As long mcdonalds doesnt have security enabled you can connect to their router.....and you do not need a router to make this work.

Buy a good wireless nic card and see that you are not closed in a room with doors and see that the sufficient signals should be passing because if your closed in a cabin you will get a less signal also.

should you choose to use the signal from the nearby mcdonalds, make sure you don't access any important info on your screen. if it's an open signal (not requiring a key or password), then it's probably not the most secure signal.
