Greetings,
I have 2 linux boxen separated by 2 floors. My questions are as follows:
a) can i just use 2 802.11 wireless cards to connect the two?
b) what is the range on these buggers? The construction is all wood.
c) what parts will give me the most bang for my buck...
d) how good is wireless lan support on linux?
Speed is not horribly important. I can live with anything faster than
128Kps, so if anyone else knows of any other linux friendly options please
let me know. I heard of a guy who is using the networking that works over
power circuits with linux, but i have not found any docs on the process....
Basicly my other option is to drill holes in the wall and run about 250ft of
cat5....
my goal is to keep the entire project less than $250 because that is what it
would cost to cable the mess....
thanks
