Securit System Cameras 150 ft from house

I have security cameras in horse barns 150 ft away from my house, house is where my router is, is there a way to make the camera's DVR wireless back to the router in the house? Can I use two routers, Was thinking an extra wireless router in the barns hooked to the camera systems dvr will transmit the cameras back to the router in the house, will that work?
Thanks for your help as always.

sounds possible although you may need directional antenna to get any sort decent thruput over 150 feet. The wifi router in the barn will need to acting as a wifi client (probably called "bridge" in the config)

Thank you Joeseph
I am getting at the barns a great wifi signal, I was reading on the internet suggestions and a few said run a CAT5 cable underground in pvc pipe but wanted to not go that route unless necessary.
Thanks again for your help

This product will do the connection, or one of their other similar products. They have products that can do 50km links. You may need another router in the barn if you have multiple devices to connect.

have you used these before Tim? reason I ask is I have a customer in Waikato doing almost same scenario as Don and they've used an AP in bridge mode in their "barn" and with the AP's being about 20m apart the thruput is rubbish. We've suggested they get directional antenna for at least the Barn end, but customer is keen to bin both units & get something more dedicated...

I haven't used them myself, but they're widely recommended on Geekzone by people who do regularly use them.

what bitrate do you need to transfer from the cameras? if its really low bandwidth or only 1 camera then a directional antenna might be enough to transfer that distance (im assuming its unobstructed distance.)
Wireless N will transfer ~200Mbps at around 70-80ft. Wireless AC will transfer ~400Mbps at 70-80ft. Much beyond that you would probably need a high power directional antenna.

I am a big fan of wired. performance is consistent, higher quality and allows for growth, Think of higher bandwidth, POE etc..(Run two lines out there just incase you need more bandwidth out there). Also remember they have direct bury Cat5e cable that you can directly bury in the ground without conduit. It would take an afternoon with a trench digger. I would add some conduit for the risers at each end but thats it.

I too try to use wired when possible, but in this case a repeater or range extender I think is the box you want (as opposed to a router)

Normal applications will only use a single router, when used as a 'router" however some routers can be set up as repeaters. I;d argue a repeater is better.

About 9 months ago I need to get internet about 250-300' from where my router is. Ended up going direct bury cat5 cable. Works amazing with a wireless router on the other end. The far end gets the same speeds that I do.

Thanks to all of you for your help, I think I will go with the cat5 cable.
