Default Help with WDS/wireless around a corner challenge

Anyone have experience with WDS setups?

Looking to wrap wi-fi coverage around the corner of a building.


Code:

           repeater                                                   here

                  (3) - wifi required
                        here
Antenna at (1) will be ~3m (10') high.

Antenna at (2) will be ~6m (20') high.

Distance from (1) to (2) is about 75m (225') with a 100% clear line of sight

Distance from (2) to (3) is about 100m (300') with a few small trees in the way

Would dual radio repeaters be ideal in this situation?

We were looking at the Engenius EOR 7550.

Our thought was to place one at (1) and one at (2). In both locations radio one (600mw B/G) would be set up with a 9db gain omni directional antenna as an access point to provide wifi access for devices. Radio two (lower power B/G/N) on both devices would be setup to provide a dedicated WDS bridge for backhaul.

Anyone have any experience or thoughts?

Anyone played with dual radio devices before?

Always try to keep your backhauls on 802.11a (5.8g band)
Use a quality direction array for backhauls for high gain and good noise rejection
