The maximum suggested length of an Ethernet cable is 300' and that includes CAT5E. However, there is Gigaspeed, but a little pricey as cable goes. There used to be a wireless system called "Canopy" which I understand is owned by Motorola. We used to use it at the Joliet NASCAR track when I did the phones there. There were areas that it just didn't pay to run cables for internet access and VOIP telephones, so what we did was install Canopy transmit antennas on top of the highest point of the grandstand tower, about six or ten and point them out various directions to receive antennas...they were line of site so you had to play with them a little to get the best signal. Both ends plugged into an Ethernet switch, and you can get 5 port unmanaged Netgear Ethernet switches for nothing at Best Buy or wherever. Plug one end into your internet source, the other inside your barn into your WiFi Access Point and away you go. I would be willing to bet that you could pickup a Canopy transmitter/receiver pair and their Power Over Ethernet or something similar on EBAY or something like that to get your signal between your house and metal barn for cheaper than someone might guess. Anyway, seems like a good idea. Much good luck.
