Background:
Ok. A friend of mine (basically family) just got a new house close to where his business is. He doesn't want to pay for another cable modem installation+monthly free if he can just share access from his workplace. I've never been to the house yet, but he says that it's about 40 yards away from the business, so lets just say its 50-80 yards away to be safe.
He has 4 computers wirelessly connected in his business already, im not sure which router he uses currently, but that is not an issue.
The problem: My other friend who runs a computer 'business' wants to charge him $100 for two WRT54gs, $200 for labor, and another $50 for security. i feel like my friend is getting ripped off and want to help him, but im not sure what i should install instead. I am assuming that my one friend was going to ad hoc one wrt54g from the business to another 54g at my friends house. how well would that work?
If I just bought one of those linksys router with MIMO could that get better range then the two 54Gs?
anyway, if you have any suggestions, or i left out something, let me know.
