Subject: [PLUG] Long range wireless networking...

Does anyone know of an amplifier for 802.11b networks to go between
an antenna and the card?  If I'm not mistaken, it's legal to use 
up to 1 watt of transmit power.  I need greater range, I'm
hoping that I can simply increase the power.  I thought I'd
ask before going to the trouble of trying to build my own.

Aside from boosting the power, who is a good supplier of dish
and wire grid antennas for 802.11b/g networking?  Cantennas 
are highly directional, it can be a challenge to line two 
of them up. 

I'm also curious about using LMR-900 cable instead of LMR-400
and what PoE cable is.
