Wireless Networks: Connecting buildings together
I need a little help here. Whats the best way to connect 2 buildings around 600 ft apart? I currently have a Linksys BEFW11S4 wireless router.
Option A:
Figure out which antena port on my router to use and plug in a Directional Antena to the building.
Option B:
Setup a Linux box with router app (I'm sure I could find one) and use a desktop card..but remove the antena and connect a directional one.
Foreseeable problems with A:
I think I'd lose my local wireless if i removed an antena and shot the signal to another building.
Foreseeable problems with B:
Aquiring a linux box and the software to use.
General probelm:
Would I need a directional antena at the other building to shoot the signal back to my house so they can communicate?
Any help is appreciated.
