Hi Everyone,
I am trying to get my wireless to go aprox. 125' to my detached garage and can't get beyond barley outside my house. I have a Linsys WRT54G wireless router and have a Linksys WPC54GS card in my laptop plus 3 other pc's wireless and one hardwired to the router on my network. I also had a older SMC wireless router with smc cards with the same result. There is only 2 windows to go through to connect. I live in the country with open space and no major electrical wires in the area (everything is underground). There has to be a reasonable way to do this. Could I use a wireless access point WAP54G set up as a repeater right at the window with a cantena on it pointed at the garage then another access point just inside the garage? I am looking for any ideas that could accomplish this. Thanks Steve
