    We're not talking a big budget here.

    And, opinions on the signal extender I have selected?

    It's as good as most 802.11n, 80m will be ok as long as your not punching through tin walls or metal fly wire. Better solutions add to the $$$
    If marginal then a USB antenna for the end device.
    Try to mount it high and ideally outdoor, maybe under an eave depending on signal strength

    A lot will depend on the quality of the receiving antenna. Which I presume is 802.11n.
    Oh and make sure the security is activated

    By all means get a Defender. If you get a good one, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher.

    Do a Google search for "cantenna" (antenna in a can), years ago a mate and I were running wireless network s about 350 meters or more using them.
