Hey everyone. 

I will be moving about 200km into the middle of nowhere for work purposes. My wifi will come from a satellite dish that will be connected to my trailer. the problem is there will be 2 more trailers (co-workers) about 200 feet from my trailer (so we will be in triangle formation). I am wondering if i would be able to get my wifi signalto the other two trailers (through range extenders, outdoor wifi router). Any ideas would be great thx

Check out Ubiquiti Networks they do a whole heap of this sort of stuff. 

Some of their Unifi stuff is "weather proof" and they also have some out door network stuff called 'AirFibre'.

It can get a bit expensive though...

Hopefully this helps!

 

**edit**

 

Might be cheaper to run a small network switch and run outdoor rated cat 6 ethernet cables?

I'm no expert in the external WiFi field but i think that is also a point to point solution.
