 Get some outdoor CAT-5 cable

Get some outdoor CAT-5 cable and run it on top of the fence and start your very own ISP. Also get those cheap 4 ports ethernet switch (one per 800 feet - or one per house) for ethernet buffering/forwarding.

I've been testing this scheme out (indoor/outdoor)- works pretty well, anyone in the 95051 interest in this?

Tinley Park, IL		 Wait until the first lightning storm hits. You need to be sure to properly ground the setup that you are describing.

This isn't really feasible due the the cable limitations of CAT5. You can only have 100 meter lengths before the line starts to attenuate..
