Point to Point Wireless between Buildings
We need to install a Wireless connection between 2 building (about 30m apart), the devices will be put on the inside the windows so not on the outside of the buildings.
The devices will need to support bridged mode as they are just used to connect the networks that are on the each side, no client devices will connect to these devices.
Has anyone got a suggestion for a set of devices or know if the Cisco Aironet 2800 or 3800 can do function as required above?

Hi Alex, the budget has not been set, if we find a suitable product we can argue for the budget, what options do we have?

I've also read good things about them, never used them though
Since these devices are not going to be mounted on a roof, keep in mind objects passing between the two bridged access points can cause connectivity issues. I would recommend putting them as high up as possible.
that's only if they are directional antennae, wireless boxes like this will be fine :-)
