Yes, this is what I would look at first. It would be higher speed and probably be more relable than wireless. You put a box at either end of the straight copper pair and connect each box to the LAN at each location. Such boxes are called "Ethernet Copper Extenders" and cost about $500 a pair. see www.ethernetextender.com for one example ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
