One of our clients has a setup.
In the rocks area, the building is an old building (Brick walls etc)
They cant drill holes etc, So cable was out of the question.
So;
We sold em 12 wireless NIC's, and a wireless hub.
All went well
They have it spred over 2 floors, 4 machines downstairs and 6 upstairs.
Works pretty good, speeds are like um 800kb/s average on each floor, and
about 400kb/s going upstairs/dowstairs.
Sometimes the machines drop off, but they come back up pretty fast.
Pings are about 15ms to each machine, so its pretty nice overall.
I wouldn't put it in.. unless its required to do so... Since, machines
sometimes drop off and la la la
We used samgsung equipment. I dont know the prices. Sorry, I only put it
together..
