I can't believe that no one has mentioned the Pringle's can
antenna. It was a big deal when 802.11 first became popular and
folks were reporting a couple of miles across a lake. one on each
mobile home rooftop pointer at each other ought to work pretty well.
It must be Googleable. "Pringle can antenna"

Ok, being the initiator of this fine thread... someone please tell me
if this will work (as most of this stuff is over my head anyway:-)
I have a new Airport extreme (dual band) on the wall that is currently
my main access to the internet for all computers, ipods etc. Now, what
I want to do is get an older (space ship) airport extreme, and it will
join my existing network wirelessly, then with a connected cantenna
(connected to the rear antenna port) shoots via "line of sight" to my
sisters front room window, allowing her to connect via her macbook.
Will this work? Jeff
