Short story.

Connect a lan segment via a device wireless suggestion.

Long story.

My old neighbor is running out of money so I thought I could let him leach off my internet. What I have is two houses about 600 feet apart, almost clear path but trees. I can almost get his current wifi on my phone so it isn't that difficult.

I wanted to know if anyone has tried devices to simply attach a lan segment to a different lan segment like building to building. Newegg has the engenious stuff that might work.

Guess I could run a real wire down there but the deer would tear it up.

Or just try to get something like this to work? http://www.solidsignal.com/pview.asp?p=WCR-GN&ss=21322

Not really a linux question.


Thanks.

I've had good experiences with Alfa

I use This

because of my shop being seperate from my house. My motorcycle shop is a 20x40 foot
all steel quonset type of building also and my wireless shop media center gets it's signal from
my house router. It aint cheap though.

My dogs run loose through the fenced in parking lot between the shop and the house so a elevated
wire is too much hassle for me since I need the air space for trucks,trailers and such in the parking lot so wireless works for me.

I guess you might find something with the same range and specs for cheaper though if you try hard.

Thanks for the replies. I'll look at those suggested and see if I can borrow something to test.

I'll mark this as solved.
