I used to use the Engenius ENH202 all the time and they were great, but last I checked the prices went up. I have recently gotten the TP Link CPE210. They are cheap, but not nearly as powerful. I was able to put the ENH202 in the middle of someone's house and generally aim it in the right direction and there would be great signal 500' away even through some trees.
