Re: Low Cost Line of Sight LAN Connection




I have a wap11 in the loft.

Wife's sister is about 300 yds down the road and has a multitainer with a
orinocco USB client (Orinocco silver card in a neat little plastic case)
fitted with a small pigtail (think it came from Solwise).

Has been running fine with no problems for the last 2 years, initially
sharing Home highway and now broadband.
