I'm completely new to this and need help setting up a WLAN using a 2
parabolic antennas. I live on top of a mountain and want to set up an
ADSL internet connection through a dedicated phoneline located in the
village at the bottom of the mountain (with a clear view from here)
1.5 miles away. I've looked around the internet to try to answer my
questions, but can't figure out what equiptment is needed: 1)at the
phoneline end, between the ADSL modem and the first parabolic antenna;
and, 2) at the top of the mountain, between the second parabolic
antenna and my computer's router.
This kind of long-range WLAN stuff here in Japan is still much in its
infancy. I called a specialist about setting up this system for me,
and he wanted about 3000 dollars for the job. So I thought I'd jump in
and try to do it for myself.
