I am wanting to extend my wireless network to another building approx. 50 yards away.  Can this Outdoor Omni-Directional Antenna be mounted outside and be plugged into an router with a removeable antenna and it work.  Or does this type of antenna need a more complicated setup like a point to point solution.

Hawking Antenna

Wireless networking is a method by which homes, telecommunications networks and enterprise (business) installations avoid the costly process of introducing cables into a building, or as a connection between various equipment locations. Wireless telecommunications networks are generally implemented and administered using radio communication. This implementation takes place at the physical level (layer) of the OSI model network structure. The key hardware components of a wireless computer network include adapters, routers and access points, antennas and repeaters.

Wireless Hardware

Wireless networking is anything related to the transfer of data between two (or more) devices without the use of a physical connection, ranging from getting advice on a new Bluetooth headset to configuring sophisticated enterprise level networks.
