The Italian Center for Radio Activities (CISAR) ijust set a new world record. Stretching from Sardinia Island to Central Italy, the 189 mile (304km) LAN connection ran on Ubiquiti's XtremeRange5 miniPCI module at 5Mbps, which used 35dBi 5GHz parabolic dish antennas to achieve the range. Even if it is not precisely the furthest WiFi connection ever achieved, it is the first use of the 5GHz frequency for 5Mbps speeds.
