Extending my home broadband Wifi beyond 5km
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Long-Range-3KM-High-Power-5800MW-58DBI-USB-Wireless-Wifi-Adapter-Antenna-Applied-/351012238114?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item51b9f5b322
My office is about 6km from my home & I'm exploring if I could extend my home's
Wifi to say 7km or more. The item above only goes up to 3km.
Q1:
The items below has good Amazon ratings but they did not indicate what's the distance/range
they could extend the Wifi signal, any idea?

Q2:
Do suggest any other devices (pls provide the URL/links to purchase the device) that could extend
the Wifi up to 7km or more
Q3:
Will the throughput drop with the longer distance? Can this be calculated?

is the above M2 good enough? M5 costs more.
Can these devices work in British Commonwealth countries or it works regardless of where I am located?

info helps with my queries above. If it doesn't help, let me know so I dont have to post it.
I live on 11-12 storeys building so I guess it's tall enough to reach my office without much of
building hindering the signals. If it works, my brother who stays 3km away from my place at
36 storey (about 36x 3.5m per storey) could share my Wifi too
