Create A LAN from a WAN

Is it possible to create a LAN from a WAN. E.g my brother lives across the
road from me and has broadband from BT he has a wireless router and I can
access it from the front of my house but not the back of my house. My
question is, can I buy a device that I can put in the front of my house, put
in his WEP key and then hard wire from this device to create a LAN in my
house. I hope this makes sense and if so what is the best set up.

This is a typical reply that I expected from a F**king dick head. Is it a no
wonder that newsgroups are getting less and less popular with people opting
for subscribed forums instead because of stupid replies by wanke*s like you

Is there really any need for this sort of reply to a genuine question
one is compelled to be a cheapskate to survive in this country to day
in the present economic climate which has been created by this totally
useless government that couldn't run a booze up in a brewery .
If I can get something legally without having to spend money that I
would also .

SH failure?

Yes,you can.

No, it won;t be brilliant a s bandwidth will tend to be restricted, and
the cost of the gear and installation will probably be as much as a
years broadband subscription.

Cheapsaktes end up spending more.

But the OP will have to spend more money for less bandwidth and reliability.

unexplained reason:
