Wow, is this even possible?

I guess? His explanation is a little too star-trekkey for my taste. Is he just using the incoming and outgoing signal from the phone to catch 11g signals? From what he says a 3g phone is always grabbing and pinging the 2.4ghz band which I think is incorrect, but in theory you could make this work...

There are no wireless networks other than my own for about 6 miles here, so that'd be pointless for me.
=P -
I don't think it's impossible - but image yourself doing this at home

I think it would work, simply because anything traveling through the air can be intercepted.

Wrapping the nic cable around the phone does nothing. What he did not show was how may connection were there prior to plugging it in. So yes plugging it in vs not will make a difference. And of course a dish will boost signals. If not done right noise.

Yeah, I mean if you just throw together a basic parabolic antenna you'll get signal gain. I just don't believe the part about 'if you see a network connection that sounds like your phone number you did it right'.

It's a marketing scheme to run up your sell phone minutes, by using the more expensive wifi service. Signal quality will be very poor if the dish is not design to focus the signal at a specific point. If not you will have scatter noise which greatly degrade the signal quality.
Is this even possible?
