Is it possible for my daughter (who is a student) to run an internet connection from a stand-alone Pc/laptop while she is away from home?
She lives in student accomodation and has no telephone connection in the house, and is too far away for my wireless network to reach. Is it possible for her to run off our home connection in someway?
What kindof computer hardware would we need to do this?

I have gained from advice as well as bargains here, so if I can help in any way, I am only too pleased to do so and appreciate your thanks.

She needs a telephone or cable connection for internet access, unless she can get access via Satellite or through her mobile phone (v-expensive).
Can she not get to together with other people and get a telephone line put in ? , otherwise shes going to need to use a public library/or university campus access, unless she can get use of someone elses connection ?I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.0 -
