Nate - I'm thinking about setting my dad up with a solution to a similar solution. My parents are living in kind of a dual home situation to help out my grandparents who are across the street, about 500 feet away. What would you suggest for an AP and or antenna that could make that reach? Or would most products out there do it on their own? - Nick -----Original Message----- From: Nate Carlson [mailto:natecars at real-time.com] Sent: Friday, March 08, 2002 1:22 PM To: tcwug-list at tcwug.org Subject: Re: [TCWUG] ok, where do I start?

Where/what do you recommend I start reading? Depends what's between you, your patio, and at the coffee house. :) Do you have los (line of sight) to the coffee house from your patio? if you do, you may be able to throw a directional antenna pointed at the coffee house on your patio, and get everything you need. otherwise, you'll have to convince someone to come out with a buncha gear to see what we can rig up! :) -- Nate Carlson <natecars at real-time.com> | Phone : (952)943-8700 http://www.real-time.com | Fax : (952)943-8500 _______________________________________________ Twin Cities Wireless Users Group Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.tcwug.org tcwug-list at tcwug.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tcwug-list
