Possibly my least interesting experience to date was trying to work out why `the internet isn't working' via mobile phone whilst standing on top of a Bronze Age barrow somewhere in the Fens.
Have you tried using a real networking technique, if you can get a little bit of height and some big twigs yoy could use 1-11Mbps wireless ethernet to connect these up, we have had success with over 8 miles per link!
I saw this being setup at the only meet I've attended, at the UEA, but didn't manage to find out any detail. In company with another Linux user that occasionally lurks here, I attend meetings of another local computer group and this seems like it would be useful for us. If this isn't the right place for the detail, perhaps you could email me privately.
Thanks.
