Im moving out from home and currently im trying to cut some expenses. My family has really good internet, is it possible to use some sort of antenna and link the internet from home to my new house wich is about 5 km away?

yes but it's beyond your abilities and wouldn't save you
bro just hack your neighbor's wifi
Internet is cheap. Cut some other shit.
it isnt where I live.
I just wanna know if its possible, and how much the hardware would cost me
>5km
Maybe if you have line of sight and directional antennas.That's a huge distance for wifi bandwidths and frequencies.
If you can afford to move out, you can afford internet.
If you can't afford both, you can't afford to move out.
How much we talking?
Get a good phone subscription with LTE or faster speeds.
$1000-$40,000 depending on the geography of your area and your skill
shit.
1k really
fuck
You're not ready to move out from home if you cant even afford internet. Why cant you just live with them until you have the money to afford things.
Yes it's possible, but it's gonna cost you much more. You don't want to go through this route; it's not worth it. And the internet will end up suffering stability.
Here are your options:
1.) Stay with your family and save up money to be able to afford moving out + purchasing internet
2.) Move out and don't get internet
3.) Move out with a working friend in a 2 bedroom apartment and split the internet bill
4.) Move out and negotiate with your neighbors that you'll pay half of their internet bill so that you can use their internet (alternatively you can just hack their wifi if you're tech savvy).
Think through these options. You dont want to invest in an expensive antenna. There will be installation costs to it if you're a brainlet, so you would end up paying even more money to get a technician to install the antenna. Not worth it at all.
so i will not be saving internet monthy cost?
Ok, thats the answer I was looking for really
honestly what did you expect bro. that's if you get lucky and everything is easy. you need a fair bit of hardware to get that kind of distance.

This. But also, living with your parents is great. You save a ton of money, which you'll be glad to have if you ever want to buy a home / get married/ etc
You can make a coffee or Pringles can directional antenna and attach it to an high power amplified wifi card/dongle. You aren't getting 5k in distance though without being on a mountain top.
nah living with your parents sucks. until you've lived alone you don't realize how much better it is. I love my parents and they're great people but I'd do anything to not live with them anymore. I had to move back home after university for a few years and it sucked hard.
If you have line of sight 300 bucks.
