 Re: wireless routers and/or powerline adaptors | |
The thing with wireless is the impedence and interference. A standard WIRED network is only good for about 100 feet. Wireless, even the best system runs interference and some of your buildings are 200 feet apart, and as Chris said theres repeaters etc, and yes you have to match your equipment all getting costly. Wireless systems can run quite a distance powered correctly but again, big dollars too.
If I were to invest, I think Id check with the cable company about what it would cost to install cable lines. Or you could have a handy dandy man come out and wire it as well. However, you might want to consider two cable connections if you are wanting them all to access the internet. The one you currently have, and then the one that networks all the rest together. Youd want to make a server on the second one, and then access for all the others to that server, and.. Id still keep the current connecttion and also allow it access to the network to keep things speeding along.
