As I've written here before, I have a T1 connection in my home and I share my connection with my neighbors using 802.11. I've been receiving quite a bit of mail recently due to making the front page of some specific 802.11 Google search. I just wanted to add an entry to say how I'm setup:
I use a Linksys WAP11, and a Hyerlink Technologies 8DB omni-directional antenna mounted outside. I am looking for a repeater solution so that I can reach about 20 other homes. Please send me mail if you know if a good solution.
Posted by Jud at May 08, 2002 11:59 PMWhat range do you get? Where is the HyGain installed?
Posted by: Britt Blaser on May 10, 2002 05:55 AMdo you charge? How much? What is the normal bandwith that your customers get? ex. 1 user out of 20 on, gets ###/KB per sec
thanks

I have an WAP 11 with a 15dbi antenna. How far can a customer be away from me to receive my signal? The antenna is about 50ft. Do I need a repeater or amp to go far?

Posted by: Kafui Darkey on January 20, 2003 03:31 AMHave some useful links for those looking into WiFi. First link is good information about WiFi in general, includes a chart for translating Dbi to miles reached. The second link is to an antenna manufacture that has some good prices.

It would be hard to achieve a raidius of 100km without using repeaters .There are serveral solutions, the above navini is one of such or you can employ the motorola canopy .Canopy, a "last mile" or local loop technology, consists of three building blocks: an access point to distribute service to the surrounding community; the backhaul unit, which provides an Internet feed from a remote location; and the subscriber module -- a receiver installed at a residence or small business building. Canopy operates in the unlicensed 5GHz U-NII band, so there is no need for spectrum acquisition and site licensing. A site with Canopy's access point can serve as many as 1,200 subscriber modules in all directions.motorola-canopywireless.com
