[SOLVED] WiFi out to 800 feet
I didn't want to hijack the other thread but Arlen got my interest with those antennas. If I wanted to hit a LAN based camera 800' away, what would I need to to do (clear LOS). The objective would be to attach it to an existing security DVR that has 2 unused WiFi portals. I am trying to avoid the cloud/phone thing but that seems to be what most of these ones I see are doing these days. I assume once they are on the network I could coax my DVR to see them. Do I need an enhanced antenna at both ends or would the dish at the host end give me enough signal strength to talk?
Thanks
