I am surprised with why two different access points would be used. I would
think it would be much cheaper to hook one building up and then connect the
second to it. If they are physically fairly close to each other, wireless
can even be used (fairly close is within three miles). It is much cheaper
AND much faster than 56K. We use wireless to hook all our buildings
together, giving us a WAN and then have one connected out to the net. All
speeds are T1 or faster. Just my thoughts......
