There's lots of activity when I type keywords, video conference distance
learning, but nothing at the no budget level, yet. Seems like there's
going to be a server/client network description someplace. The server
most likely has to have a way to manage connections/cam screens, so what
is that, distance learning dashboard, or something? I'm also thinking
there may be requirement for specialized video card/tuner card
capability for handling video feeds into the server. Does that make sense?

OK, I officially don't get it.
At the beginning of the thread you started talking about the Nanostation2
and, I believe, for some reason lumped it in with TV. Nanostation2 is an
802.11bg CPE. 802.11 is the wireless standard used by all wireless access
points. There is no correlation with broadcast TV.
If you want to "stream video" (not the same as broadcast TV) and your source
is a video camera then you may need a video capture card that feeds the
streaming software. I've not done this in quite some time....but I think I
remember feeding my TV card to mplayer and streaming it to my friend in his
office so he could watch baseball games. Now, I just use a slingbox as all
I need is one-to-one.
So, I'm really not sure of what you are wanting since I believe you have
intertwined 2 questions when they are not connected.
I think you are asking....
1. How can I set up a wide area community wireless network (intranet).
2. What is needed to stream video over #1.
