I saw this question posed on on the forums at
AnandTech.com and would love to see if it is plausible.
"Ok, here is the deal. I have a freind that lives
about 5.7 miles away from me and almost has a line of sight. He would probably
have to put an antenae on his house to get a line of sight to mine. At my house,
I have no options for high speed internet access, at all, but at his house, he
can get cable. I got to thinking, and I came up with an idea. What if I could
get ahold of some wireless networking equipment that I could use to network to
his house, then he could get cable, we could split the monthly bill, and I would
have cable access at my house.
Here is my question: What equipment could
I use to do this? I found some stuff on cisco's site, but it costs about $8000.
The speed does not have to be supper fast, but I would like to have something at
least the speed of ISDN.
I want to know what other people have to say
abhout this, so shoot. "
Is this plausible. Is there any technology
out there that uses public spectrum over a 6 mile distance
?
