Wireless distance
« on: December 29, 2008, 04:59:17 AM »
I have a home as well as a guest cabin that is about 750 feet away. I was given a AirLink 101 w\ Mimo Technology and told I could have wireless from my house to the cabin. I have found this is very much not true and am now trying to figure out how to do so. Anyone got any suggestions?

Look up instructions on building a "cantenna"...
Pringles cans work rather well for this.

    Patio, My dear man you seem to be way behind the curve on high technology "cans" for the "cantenna". This is but one of many examples of "expert" opinion re the "pringles" technology.truenorth http://bloggedopinions.blogspot.com/2005/11/how-to-build-cantenna.html

    So they've switched to Chili cans ? ?
    My Pringles setup works great ! !
