Not without exceeding the regulatory limits for 5GHz class license! :-}

Significant care should be taken when using this equipment, and ALWAYS use the 'Auto Adjust to EIRP Limit' feature to be certain.

If both ends are more than a given distance from a population center of a defined size (15km/10000pp from memory) then you can buy a
license to operate up to 200 watts, which can deliver those kinds of rates - otherwise 7-10Km is about the limit for any usable
link, and less than 5Km for any decent rate throughputs.

Over 2-3Km, that class of equipment is fantastic value for money! (there are other brands available too, of course :-)

Cheers!
