Pretty simple really. a Linksys or other good quality router with an 5db 
omni external antenna in a central location. Clients may or may not need 
external antenna. Its a cut and try thing. connect the router to your 
inet modem. and you are in business.
I live in a compound in Port Townsend. similar situation. Our router 
only has the antenna that came with it. [maybe 2db] I leave the detail 
of connection sharing to you and your isp.
