What you ask is commonly done with 10km radius cells. There are likely several million such customers being served by thousands of providers, over 2,000 in the U.S. alone. Most have long ago moved away from omnis for that distance, reserving them only for small microcells. Most operators deploy sector antennas. It drammatically improves service quality and even more drammatically reduces the ambient noise level and exposure to interference.

I have two WAP's, one omni antenna, one grid antenna. Will it using the grid or omni cause any damage to the AP's? How far will the signal reach?
