Perhaps, but what do they cost? My perhaps incorrect assumption is that once you leave the realm of basic home networking routers/WAPs the prices jump to another range rather quickly. (Though perhaps you could get something for 802.11g which was "previously owned" for less money now that the move to 802.11n is (possibly) happening). Folks keep saying there are "higher power" WAPs "out there". I'd appreciate it if they would also include a few model numbers so we could get an idea what price points and hardware specs they are thinking of. > A buried cat5 would be faster/cheaper tho. Amen to that! Wired still always beats wireless in lots of ways. Not as convenient though. Especially if you're trying to route the cable through a trailer park. Besides being a PIA lot of work to do even only somewhat properly the owner of the trailer park might not be as supportive of this project as one might hope for.
