how does the internet get into my house when all the windows and doors are closed?

and how big of a hole do I need for it to come through the wall from the air?

Update:

again.... no cables. never had them. no telephone nothing. it comes from a tower somewhere out there and somehow gets packeted into my house. just curious as to how much garbage is being transmitted into my head when I go pick up my weed man.

    If you are using the internet from home right now, then your

    ISP (Internet Service Provider) brought it in. This can be done

    with your telephone land line, your tv cable, FIOS, or possibly a dish.

    Internet will not come through the air unless

    you are using your neighbor's WIFI router.

    Holes in the wall are unlikely to improve your signal.

    I think you have discovered the secret security implications of the internet.

    It is all a part of a plot to give the CIA access to the interior of every home on the planet.

    You think that the mouse on your computer is just a "mouse". This is not true.

    When the mouse is left unsupervised at night it generates a mousehole just as all other mice do.

    This hole not only lets the internet past any firewall you may have, it also passes it through any other type of wall too.

    However you should note that it takes a lot more effort to punch a hole through a metal wall than it does through a wooden one.

    Hence your wifi doesn't work so well in a steel building.

    But never fear. If you attach a mouse to your ipad or portable computer then this will increase the size of the hole over time and increase your connectivity.
