We have Linksys WAP54G's connecting from our high school to the stadium. There is a mode that can be configured to make it very secure, and it just works. I would say it is going about half a mile or so, and just keeps on working. I am pretty surprised for the little bit of cost we have in it.

It is about 150 yards from the elementary to the Bus barn. We have been using an old Linksys Wap11 Wireless hub to send the signal through a window and then connects to a Wireless to Wired bridge with an antenna that is poking through the wall of the buss barn. So I need to be able to send a RELIABLE signal to the bus barn for the transportation director. The computer in the barn has a wi-fi card so we could skip the bridge, but the barn is made of metal. Also I have been told it has to be cheap. I suggested a Pringals can wifi cannon but it was shot down. So what does this mind-trust have for ideas? Karl H.
