You'll probably need to run thicknet cable with the appropriate connectors
off of the routers antennae connection to within appropriate distance of the
destination. Those antennae connect to the router and network cards with
what is essentially a male/female TV cable connector. You can run it up the
wall and outside to a mast and a better antennae. Do the same at the other
end. That short, stubby antennae is just a short, stubby antennae, but it
doesn't have to be. You could feasibly hook it up to Arecibo and connect to
the space station, provided they are also using IEEE standard 802.11g specs.
