I appreciate all the replies I received to my previous question in the
thread 'rural wifi extension' which seems to have rolled off the news
server by now. Other things came up to delay the project but now I
have some more information on the location.
There are three significant trees blocking line of sight between the
house and the studio where we want to extend broadband. The satellite
router sits in the upstairs office. This is where we want to take the
wifi from.
The distance is about 300ft or 100m.
I'm not at the location right now, so I am going to show them the
terraserver image and ask if they can tell me where the trees are.
I will post back here the results should we decide to go ahead.
Oh, and if we use an extender or access point outside on a post (as
I've seen) it will have to be strong enough that the cows won't knock
it over. ;-)
