About a year and a half ago, we did some short range testing of medium resolution video from an IP camera using 2.4 GHz WiFi. I think it was 240 lines but I am not for sure on that. It worked in near real time with a good signal sent to a laptop from a WAP that was connected to a vertically polarized omni directional gain antenna up about 15 feet at the base.
The laptop only had the built in antenna so when you got out hundreds of feet, the refresh was often quite lengthy and if you went behind a steel building there was no throughput at all. This might have some potential for moderate range video transmissions, with serious gain antennas on each end, but since video does require quite a lot of speed to get much data through, it seems that this will be limited to special applications. 73, Rick, KV9U John B.
