*nods* I've used your 1.9 mile link as the bar for me.

But we want to install another 450 AP and I am loathe to use it as will saturate the link in no time. Looking to save the 5ghz spectrum for our AP's, I am thinking of the AF24HD. Has anyone installed a link that far? Does it work well? I don't need the full 2 gigs. More like 300 would be more than enough for quite a while.
