And it's best to have the WAP11 closer to the antenna as possible (build a weatherproof box so you can have it outside).
And don't forget the lightning arrestors.
Also don't forget to consider power-over-ethernet to power the AP's (and since it's low-voltage DC, you shouldn't need any building permits).
But then again, I don't recommend WAP11's.
I have one (a refurbed v2.2 after I returned the old v1.x that I had) and it's a POS, and I'm not kidding. WEP is dysfunctional and it for no reason re-starts on its own if you connect to it every 5 or more minutes.
Unfortunately, I don't have the funds to buy a better ap atm (thanks in part to some a-hole who stole my bike out of my garage)

I am attempting to connect 2 houses that are about 2000 feet apart. Maybe 2500. I am going to put a WAP11 at each site. It is the 802.11b version. Which antenna would you suggest?
