Hello,

sorry to bring this up again, but I read a lot of posts and it seemed that I can't find a correct and detailed answer to my question.

Here is my problem. I have 4 friends living within 20 km away from me. From my balcony I can pinpoint the direction of their houses in a 60 degree angle south east.

We want to setup a mesh so that they can receive my signal and join my network vice versa.

But I'm not quiet sure about the type of antenna we should buy in order to achieve this. Can somebody share his experience or help us with the right equipment that can work for the above scenario ?

Any link to store will be just fine....

Thanks,

Chris

That's quite the distance, but if you're gonna try you'll want to check out some parabolic antennas. FAB has a good selection: http://www.fab-corp.com/
