I have a couple of clients doing a similar thing over about 500 metres. The antenna at each end is a pair of stacked dipoles which are omnidirectional. Another useful device would be a "Cantenna". This would give you point to point coverage as well as increasing signal strength. The major loss is in the co-axial feed to the antenna so idealy the TX/RX wants to be as close as practicable. -- Best Regards: Gaffer Pontefract Linux User Group.

I'm checking out a device from Newegg from Hawking but wanted to see if anyone has experiences they care to share. Basically, we want to extend the signal of a WRT54G with DDWRT Hot Spot about 300 yards to another building. I'm assuming semi directional is the way to go, since omni directional wouldn't have the range and we really only need to "put" the signal on that building...
