Like someone said, use a directional antenna to get good reception.. there are actually instructions to build them online out of things like old satellite dishes or PVC pipes. Using ebay and some parts-scrounging, you could probably pull this off for $30-$40.

I'm fairly certain that if you use a wireless G router you will be able to pick up the singal further away than if you were using a B router. Therefore it would not be 'overkill' to use the 54mbit wireless, since he would have less need for another repeater halfway up this driveway.
