It depends on how much he wants to pay for the setup.<div><br></div><div>When I worked at megawire we would put a 900 Mhz antenna pointing at the location. It will go through quite a few trees, but there are of course limits. The only way to know for sure is to try. I don't know what the story with 700 Mhz lately, but that will go through the trees very well, If you can find gear that will support 700 Mhz.. You can call Tomy Pignatelli at Megawire. He was going to present for the group on the router station pro a while back, I don't know what happened to that.<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Sun, 15 Jul 2012 14:33:29 -0700<br>From: jkerr0102@rogers.com<br>To: kwlug-disc@kwlug.org<br>CC: mcintyre.mwp3@gmail.com<br>Subject: Re: [kwlug-disc] Internet services<br><br><div style="color:#000;background-color:#fff;font-family:times new roman, new york, times, serif;font-size:12pt"><div><span>Hi Cedric</span></div><div><br><span></span></div><div><span>A friend lives in the Internet 3rd world.
