Making Hotspot or Point to Point?


Hi, Could someone tell me what I would need to make a point to point
hotspot? I have a wireless Linksys WRT54G router that I use to send a
wireless internet connection to a second computer in my house. I would
like to share my Internet connection with a person .6 miles away which I
have a good "Line of Sight". I assume I would need a uni-directional
antenna. If this is true, how does one connect an antenna to a WRT54G
or am I way off base? If I could send the signal, the person .6 miles
away should be able to pick up the signal with their laptop which is
wireless capable. I would think that a "pickup" antenna wouldn't be
necessary. Any suggestions or help with this matter would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks.
