Here's my situation: I have an existing wireless network running via cisco 340 access points, and maybe some 350's...they are running in access point mode, not bridge; I have a bldg a good ways away with a small number of computers in it;I want to use a directional antenna, and point it at the area where the access points are broadcasting and pull a connection to where I'm at, and share the network connection within my bldg; both bldgs are part of my work (I work for a university as a system analyst) and it seems that if I could establish this, it would save money in the long run over running new cable in this temporary bldg for 2 or 3 pcs; here's the catch:I cannot reconfig any cisco equipment...it belongs to the telecom dept. of campus, and they will not let a lowly sys. analyst touch this equipment. Is there any way to do this other than using a client card in a pc and using internet connection sharing?
