I asked GNS Wireless, RadioLabs and FreeWave Tech.
if their gizmos could reliably communicate between

a.) A HamWAN antenna on Lookout Mountain and

b.) computer users living in a treed neighborhood
    roughly a mile away.

Greg Corey at FreeWave Technologies replied

    "We specialize in long-range, non-line of
    sight connectivity for industrial processes.
    We can most likely achieve a link to the
    locations you described but the connection
    speed would be very slow. Our maximum
    throughput is around 1.5Mbps for a single
    point-to-point link. Generally speaking, this
    isn't going to be fast enough for general home
    internet usage."

The others didn't reply.

I hope that helps, or is at least interesting.

Comments welcome.

So,
Kingsley
