Here is the setup...

I live .2 miles from my parents house which is i think 1056 feet. If i did my math right. I do not have a clear line of sight to the house.

I want to setup a wireless network to reach my parents house is this possible to do without line of sight?

If so what all do i need to achieve this?

1000ft without line of sight will most likely not be possible with consumer lvl stuff. Depends on whats inbetween the places, and around the area, but if its anything short of a chainlink fence I doubt it'll work.

I have not done anything like this, but what I would do, assuming a couple of hundred dollars to play with, would be to get a pair of THESE and point them toward each other for a total of 38db of gain. That sould give you several miles line of sight; with obstacles you have to try and see. It would be a fun experiment.
