Okay so im in a dilema... im not sure what to buy.
I have a client in Brooklyn. They have 2 offices. Right now, we have them talking via special kind of VLAN their T1 company setup. Each building has a T1 and they talk on the T1 companies side to act as one big network... anyway thats not important.
Building #1 is on the corner of a block in Brooklyn
Building #2 is 1 block up, on the corner building. Same side of street.
Building #2 is where our main servers are and they are doing construction. So for the time being, they will be setup in a parking lot in trailers.
The parking lot is on the same side of the street, about 3-4 buildings away from Building #1.
Sooo I need to setup a wireless system so that the trailers can get connected to the network.
Like i said, distance is about 3-4 buildings, not far at all. There are a few trees in the way, nothing major.
Building #1 has a sign on the roof, where we will attach antenna #1, the trailers, we'll hafta errect a big pole or something to put it in the air.
Anyway, WHAT should i buy. Im confused on the best solution.
Right now I have an order in for these:
http://www.radiolabs.com/products/wireless/wireless-bridge.php
$430 for both units that can act as a bridge.
Not bad, seems like good specs. Guy on phone says it'll do the job for what I need done.
My boss gave me a $1500 budget, kinda high, and i looked around and saw other bridge devices for about $1600... so maybe I shuld buy that?? IM looking at this also:
http://www.wlanparts.com/product/8018111/Wireless_SOLECTEK_SKYWAY_7101_8018111.html
Its $1600
Soooo which should I go with that'll work very well? Am i buying a CHEAP solution with the $430 product, or are there really no big differences??? Im not sure why one set of items cost $1500+ and others cost less then $500
Maybe someone can offer me some input here.
