Can we have your WISP website URL - even if in Polish.

Is your computer actually connected to the roof via wireless ?
seems then that the roof has back to back wireless access points.
or an Ethernet cable running from your computer to the roof ?
How does the roof equipment get power ?

I would think something like a Linksys WAP54G
acting as a "repeater mode" might be a choice ?

What does the WISP suggest ?
