Not fast enough, 100M would be good, 1000M would be better, we are

We gave a gigabit laserlink between two points and a 100M backup for
when it gets foggy :-), we are adding a 3rd building and will probably
move the laserlink to the new, more people, building and the old office
will be were IT is based.

I get the feeling it isn't going to be cheap then if 100M isn't going to be fast enough. It's a shame you can't stick some fibre through the sewers :-)

I had a quick look for Microwave links, I'm not sure what sort of pricing they are, I'm guessing probably expensive.

This company might be able to advise though:

I suppose the other option would be to look at getting fibre put in, but again I'm assuming that wouldn't be cheap even for a short distance.
