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.
If you can run a copper cable between them, you can use null modems (long haul modems) to connect them through the serial ports. Your speed would be limited to the speed of the UARTs, usually 115k. You can also use 10 Base-5 (also called thick ethernet) but pulling that cable can be expensive and most network cards today don't have the required AUI port. You can also run fiber.
