December 19, 200619 yr For networks there is special cable, you can't use telephone wires. Have you thought about wireless?
December 19, 200619 yr Encrypted wireless with directional antennas should do the trick. Or you could get cosmic with something like microwave or having lines installed. An expensive good time!

December 20, 200619 yr Author Thanks guys for all your reply, ill stick to the original plan (wireless), just though its possible. thanks again
December 20, 200619 yr Good luck - if wireless doesn't work out, I second fiber - it's cheap, you can run it on utility poles (after getting the appropriate permits, at least here in the US), and it's usuallly faster or at least as fast as your network's rated speed. Switches with GBIC ports are usually not too expensive either .
December 20, 200619 yr hi,not sure if ethernet over power will work with it being so far away but it may be worth a try
December 20, 200619 yr You could also create a free space optics (FSO) link... (http://www.systemsupportsolutions.com/) Edited December 20, 200619 yr by jcarle
December 21, 200619 yr Oooooooh, mama! Laser networking gets me all excited! "You know, I have one simple request. And that is to have routers with frickin' laser beams attached to their ports!"
