[Cu-wireless] Central Champaign

[Sascha Meinrath]

Erek,

You would have to build a two-card system -- one card would create the 
"cloud" for local wireless access; the second would be connected to an 
antenna that could beam to a more central node.  We've tested the pringles 
can antennae and they can go almost a mile, but for your distance, you 
might need to buy a better antenna (or build a better one, whichever).
