Howzit guys, i dont know much about wireless networks and i really need some help !

Firstly, i want to setup a wlan between 2 other places, both closer than 1km from me. Our roof is very high aswell and i should be able 2 c both from it. I want them to connect to our lan and share our internet. Both of them are running on a lan and have a server pc running adsl. I want to cancel the dsl and let them connect to us via wireless network so we could save some money and get uncapped account.

What would i need, for my commune and for the other 2. and what brands are the cheapest and the best.

Thx in advance !
 
PaB, you can't go wrong with the Linksys WRT54G or GL Routers. Ideally you would need one at each of the three locations, with possibly, a small Yagi antenna.

Suggest you read up on this at www.jawug.za.net for some howtos and tips etc. Also, come chat in the irc channel - the guys are always willing to help.
