unless you set up internet through a wireless carrier like verizon and sprint, the ONLY way you’re gonna send a signal (wirelessly) over that distance is through a wireless bridge, which will give you a few miles, or microwave, and I don’t even know who sells that stuff. The bridges will set you back a few grand. Maybe run optics to an AP? Edit: As far as daisy chaining (or repeaters), business class AP’s have a range of about 1000 feet. Each “hop” across a daisy chain will cut the speeds in half, regardless of how close/far they are. Just something to consider.
