Been a long time since these type of questions came up.
Summary of Idea's I've heard over the years:
- Mounting the AP in-car,
- Standard Ethernet but I think you'd probably be limited to 3
stories or so (and need special cable)
- DSL or LongReach ethernet to In-car, to AP in car
- Fiber to in-car
- Leaky coax the run of the shaft (Think tunnels, but vertical)
- Directional antenna from the bottom or the top
