A client wants to have internet service (Direct TV) approximately 500 feet
from the dish.
I've been reading about External ethernet cable and active hubs. There seems
to be a limit of 100 meters.
Is there a wireless solution? Line of sight is possible.
There's no problem with burying the cable on this farmland, and money seems
to be available in resonable amounts.
Any thoughts on the best approach to this problem would be apprreciated.
