You need: 1.Two Wireless cards 2.4 GHz (check with FreeBSD 4.5 hardware compatibility list or wait few days for 4.6 RELEASE) Then pick up the cheaper cards (for Pakistan) 2.Two antenas for 2.4GHz - but you can build these by yourself just try www.google.com I am sure you will find instruction about these. They looks like two rombs (one above the other) about one " each 3.One or two satelite dishes - the same as for sitelite TV put the antenas (convertors) in the focus of the dishes I mean EXACTLY in the focus. 4.Two Computers WITH FreeBSD ;-)))) 5.Point the dishes veeerrryyy ssharp one to the other use 'ping' timing to get the best speed The price depends of the cards and the computers. You can use two old 486 or whatever. The cards cost about $100 US each - if I am not wrong Hope that helps. --Miro > yes please tell me more details about these hardwares > ... or give me a web site i can find info on these .. > also do you have any idea how much all this will cost > ? > > thanks > > --- Miroslav Pendev > wrote: > > How about two cheap wireless 2.4 GHz cards and only > > one > > satelite dish with convertor for 2.4GHz?! > > > > I was able to cover about 5Km with two Proxim > > Symphony PCI cards, > > one year ago. > > But, you need direct visibility between the two > > buildings. > > Otherwise, forget about it. > > > > --Miro > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > > From: "faisal gillani" > > To: > > Sent: Tuesday, June 11, 2002 2:14 PM > > Subject: OT question sorry but i need salution fast > > .... > > > > > > > well sorry fro this but i couldent find any other > > > place to ask this question & i need the salution > > very > > > badly this will gratly benift me > > > well i have 2 ethernet networks running which i > > want > > > to connect but the distance between them is above > > 400 > > > meters .. so this is way beyond the normal lan > > > hardware .. > > > i am here in pakistan where no such high bandwith > > > devices or support exisit .. i was thinking about > > that > > > thicknet cable but dont know what hardware to get > > for > > > this .. also are there any wireless hardwares for > > this > > > senario ? > > > thanks you very much for reading > > > > > > ===== > > > *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨¨*¤ Allah-hu-Akber*º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨*¤ > > > > > > __________________________________________________ > > > Do You Yahoo!? > > > Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup > > > http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com > > > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > > > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body > > of the message > > > > > ===== > *º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨¨*¤ Allah-hu-Akber*º¤., ¸¸,.¤º*¨¨*¤ > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup > http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
