Just speculating...
Does a technology exist that can connect two locations that are some 2-300 meters apart without using teleserverices?
The two locations are not visible from each other, so laser or similar is not an option. The bandwidth demand is very small, so the solutions should be very inexpensive.
Sneaker net?
The cheapest way would be to use something called a Short Haul modem. Here is a link to one:(may be word wrapped) http://www.jameco.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ExecMacro/Jameco/searchResult.d2w/r...
A short haul modem would work, but at 300 meters, you are within range of thick ethernet (10Base5). You might have a hard time finding any network cards or hubs that have the required AUI port, but I'm sure you could pick up a couple of transceivers from blackbox.com. See this link for specs and other info on 10Base5 ethernet: http://www.ethermanage.com/ethernet/10quickref/ch3qr_1.html Best regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Right behind you, I see the millions Got spam?
