Appreciate recommendation for wireless network with 500' line of sight range?

[Hulk]

My brother lives about 500' from me and we would like to set up a wireless network. We do have line of sight from our roofs. Are there any affordable options that would be able to handle this distance? By affordable I mean less than $400 or so.

Thanks for any advice.

The total cost of Entry Level Harware can be containes at $400.

You could try two Linksys WAP11 with good Directional Antennae.

2.4 GHz WLAN antennas/ Wireless Internet antennas/ Access Point antennas/Wireless Bridge antennas

If it does not work you will need the next level of Hardware, and the total cost probably would exceed $800.
