300-400 feet, 1100 feet? Heck you should be able to cover this area with a 9db omni and be done with it.

Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2008 2:15 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [WISPA] Gear I've been trying to setting a small camp ground with a wireless hotspot. It's proving difficult and i'm getting tired of messing with it. Right now we have 3 units from microtik, they are the routerboard 500's and i'm not sure what cards are on them. Front one end of the park to the other it's about 1100FT according to google maps. There is a building thats not quiet in the middle, probably about 300 to 400 ft from the right side of the park. This is where the internet comes in and the main AP is. THen on the other ends we have single units and they are setup in WDS mode. All the units have omni antennas, think they are 14 db. Like i said i'm tired of messin with it. Whats the ideal gear to buy for this type of setup and how many units. I'm basically trying to allow people who are staying at this park to get on the net using there laptops, phones, etc. One thing i like about the microtik units is the hotspot web interface, it's nice that the wireless can be open and they have to use and user/pass to login. Anybody got any recommendations? Here's the parks layout http://unix-scripts.com/images/sbwl.jpg ~Shaun ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
