4wdaaron - 8/26/2015 21:03 You need to figure out some kind of line of sight befofe anything else. A screenshot of a Google Earth image would be extremely helpful.


Finding a place that is mutually visable by all sites is the most important thing.  It may be the top of the grain leg, shop, house or a different building.  Once you have found that place your golden.  This is where you will put an access point or possibly several access points.  Grain legs are great and you can easily go several miles off the top of one.

In your situation I'd probably put an AP on top of the leg.  Probably a Nanostation Loco M5.  Run the shielded Cat 5 down the leg and to your dryer controller.  Then put Loco M5 units on the house and also the shop configured as stations.  In this scenario your house would be sending the internet access to the leg, the leg would send it wirelessly to the shop and down the wire to your quantum controller.
