54g between houses

Trying to setup a connection between my house and another. Distance about 100ft, 2 walls and someone's roof to
penetrate.
So far nothing, are there any external directional antenna for 802.11g cards/WAPs?

Before you start buying more unneccesary bits have you had it working
in one building yet? It may be a setup problem rather than distance.

There are external antennas available for wireless networks, not had
the need to use any myself but a search on google should bring up some
results. I just typed in 802.11g external antenna and came up with a
few good looking solutions.
