I've put in countless interbuilding wireless setups and the only time they have problems is when the antennas get covered in an ice storm. If done properly they are very reliable.

3com building to building bridge is currently in place. It makes a 600 ft link across the parking lot from our main building. Palm trees are growing up into the path. All of them, and I've seen the signal strength go from -25ish to under -70 now. Repointing and repositioning is helping, but the best fix is to connect that warehouse with a wire to another warehouse served by a point to point link.

so how many buildings do you have access to? do you have a building off to the side where theres a clear LOS to the 2 other places that you can setup wireless on?
