I concur. I have done many ethernet runs that were up to 1000 feet in length. 
Didn't have any issues.

============================ 
 
10Base2, which is part of the IEEE 802.3 specification, has a distance limit of 
606.8 feet - 185 meters - per segment. 10 Base5, 10-Mbps baseband Ethernet ... 
  
  
Network managers understand the 100 meter distance limitation of 10BASE-T and 
100BASE-T Ethernet and make allowances for working within these limitations

Attach your AP directly to the DISH with a coupler, and power over
ethernet.
Not sure how to get ethernet 200feet.

Have you looked into ZigBee ?    Edison will be using it to read electric
meters in a couple of years
