Hi Robert,

You mean have a broadband service in your office which is only 300 feet
far from your home?

Do you have a line of sight between them or blocked by the houses?

Any specific reason you just don't get service at home too? Or are you
trying to use the office one free from home?

No, it`s just that the boradban service does not rich the very last
building and it`s gonna take at least 3 - 4 months before they reach my
area. I`ve been waiting for 3 months, but nothing.

So at moment, i`m hinking to upgrade my internet service in my office,
in roder to use it in both places: as u can see i`m gonna pay more:
upgrading + antennas + accessories = much more than subscribing for a
second contract BB line.

Do u have any idea on how i could solve this problem?

Thanks,
Vinnie

Got any tv antenna at each of the places? I have used the USB super
directional antennas mounted to the mast/aimed at the other one also mounted
on the mast, to essential make a very tight directional bridge between the
two... (Have to find my notes to get the make/model/url of it), but
basically it is a USB dongle mounted inside a directional cantenna, and with
multiple USB extension cables can easily leave the computer inside, and the
device and power for it on the mast itself on the roof (luckily from the tv
mast on my home roof I can see the tv antenna mast on the work building)
Like your situation, cable broadband ended at my office, but I lived 4 miles
away, and had to link work to home...

Not exactly this (dish antenna rather than a cantenna), but similar to this
[HWU8DD] Hi-GainT USB Wireless-G Dish Adapter

Imagine it in a weatherproof case, mounted on an antenna mast, aimed at
another one creating a bridge, and having a USB+extension cables running
into your place and connected to the computer...

Do you have line of sight? If so, you may be able to setup a Wi-Fi
link.

1. Wireless access point
2. Wireless client bridge
3. Directional antennas pointed at each other

Since i don't have the line of sight, what kind of antenna should i
use?

The pic is this:
( with " | '' i mean buildings. Those are as tall as 30 feet)

Point A --> | | | | | <--> Point B

I mesured today the distance bet ween the point A and B, and it seemes
to be around 500 meters, 1500 feet.

Thanks
Vinnie
