Sadly, the exchange is ADSL enabled, it's just the wires into my 
estate are crap apparently. Thus I, and others on the estate, 
cannot be de-DACS-ed. I wonder how many customers it would 
take to get BT to fix the lines into the estate once and for all.

My next best hope is a friend up the road, then a wireless link to 
him which we've been planning anyway.

The thing is I am then at the mercy of whatever he's doing on his 
connection. I'd rather it was under my control for my purposes of 
course.



Question:

If I run a web server in my house, will I be able to access it from the
Internet, through his connection and across the WLAN to my 
house?

I have no idea how to go about this.
