That is simply one of the coolest projects I've seen this year, one which I have long dreamed of replicating in my lovely bit of land in outer dural. I'm thinking a shipping container or prefab shed with a nice internal wood frame for the insulation would do quite nicely. My only concern is that for some reason, solar panels are incredibly expensive in this particularly sunny country... That and my internet tops out around 5mbps 2 feet from the modem, not sure what 500ft of underground cable or range extender will do to that.
- jon-wood 10y agoYou can get relatively inexpensive hardware that will do point to point wireless links at over a gigabit a second, so you could probably work something out on that front. Probably even make do with a cheap directional antenna and a wireless access point on each end.

- pjc50 10y agoThere are various solutions which will give you 100mbit or more Ethernet over 500ft of cheap coax. Leave the modem next to the phone ingress point.
