- I have two lans (ethernet thin coax) in seperate buildings (across the
- street from each other) in which I need to link together. While I have
- plenty of unshielded twisted pair running directly between the sites,
- bureaucratic hassles prevent me from running fiber, coax or rf between
- these sites. What type of device would allow me to make this link and
- still achieve reasonble bandwidth? I've seen some devices that run links
- over UTP at 56Kbit/sec, but that seems a tad slow for NFS mounts etc.
- Anyone aware of products that can utilize multiple lines to increase
- bandwidth?

- Thanks
