@jwz @david we had a fun story like this about 20 years ago. We had space in buildings on both sides of the street, one could get service and the other couldn’t. It was just beyond rated distance for CAT6 but we decided to give it a shot — a few dropped packets is better than nothing at all. So late one night we shot a fish line across the street with a bow & blunted arrow (think bowfishing) and then ran for years on it.

Fun fact: we missed the first shot and had a nice visit with the downstairs tenant the next day explaining why the potted plant on their balcony had an arrow in it.
