| 502727 | 2006-11-28 05:47:00 | Hi, I have three separate buildings that I want to connect wirelessly. If possible I would like to make it the same network spread across the three buildings, so that I can roam with a laptop seamlessly between all 3 and maintain a good connection and level of security. The buildings are a maximum of 100M apart. I have a DLINK wireless ADSL router already installed in one building, it provides a connection to one of the other buildings...so I think all I need is to set up an external aerial or two and a repeater / WAP in the building that is currently not getting signal? Your help appreciated, especially if anyone knows of a specific equipment kit catering to extending a wireless 802.11b/g network across two buildings... |
