I am looking for an easy way to convert a standard DISH TV offset feed
dish for WIFI use. I desire to mount this thing on the rooftop for a long distance rural link. I need to understand if it would be easier to go the USB device route or what the ramifications are to going the traditional rf and coax route? I think my install will require around 60 to 75 ft of feed line. Could I use a wifi "extender" amplifier at midpoint to get past feedline losses? If I go the coax route, what would be an easy way to feed the dish? Could I use a tiny off-the-shelf external wifi antenna inside of a can or do I need to homebrew something more extravagant? If I go the usb device route to feed the dish, how can I extend that far? I do need to connect this to a pc as a NIC or client, therefore remote mounting a router wont do the job for me. --- NOTE ON REPLY: YANK THE DOT UCE TO GET ME BACK PRIVATELY |
