bjarvisRoseland Resort, the campground where we keep our trailer, has wifi connectivity at the dining hall and the fellowship hall. It's not great bandwidth and the latency sucks but it's better than using pigeons to deliver packets.
While wandering around with my wifi tablet last night, I discovered the dining hall's wifi can reach as far as the nearest row of trailers, just below the ring road around Rose Hill where our trailer is located. If it would just extend another 100-150 feet, our trailer would have coverage.
I've giving some thought now to attaching a high gain antenna to the rail of our deck stairs nearest the dining hall. I still need to think through the rest: what kind of extra hardware is required, where to run a cable into the trailer, etc.. We only have one more visit to Roseland this season so I'll have the winter to think this over and devise a plan.
