Wireless neighborhood suggestion



Not sure what else to call it.  I live in a 6 condo complex (3 - 2
unit buildings) arranged in triangle, 2 front, mine in back.  We all
decided that we wanted to get one internet service and share it.  I
don't want to run wires between buildings, so wireless seems perfect,
especially since everyone seems to like to be wireless.

So can someone give me suggestions for not cheap but not expensive
wireless equipment that would cover 3 buildings (possible wireless
mesh??).  I'm currently using the Netgear Rangemax MIMO access point
located at the front of my building (back building) and it reaches my
entire building and into the back of the two front buildings which are
about 40 feet away.  I
would like to be able to reach to the front of the front buildings
which are about 70-90 feet away.

Any suggestions?
