Directional Wi-Fi for 2-3 km?

Tell me what equipment you need to buy for directional Wi-Fi reception from the 9th house to the 2-storey building at a distance of 2-3 km. There will be a maximum of 5 houses on the way, has anyone tried it, such a connection, otherwise there is no paper at hand to build a triangle :)

Ubiquiti NanoStation
5-6km, line of sight. 22Mbit / sec squeezed out without problems.
Now there may already be other equipment.

Oh, and I doubt that with such a scheme with obstacles NanoStation will pull out ...
I would look towards more powerful things, for example: www.ubnt.com/airmax#powerbridge
And one more thing: the higher the frequency, the lower the probability of getting a stable signal with obstacles, so 10 GHz will even rest against glass, 5 GHz will rest against a brick wall, 2.4 GHz against a house.
But here the problem arises that 2.4 GHz is very crowded in the metropolis.
I recommend taking 5 GHz to try first directly, if it doesn’t work, then build a bridge over the springboard, 1 + 1 or 1 + (1 + 1) + 1 scheme.
In order to save money, you can take Mikrotik bridges, the reliability is similar, and the price is half.

Ubiquility really has a lot of equipment that, with line of sight, works up to 30 km in "ideal conditions".
And yes, of such equipment they have the cheapest pieces of iron. There is cheaper Chinese, but it’s better not to mess with it - firstly, instead of characteristics, they write random numbers, and secondly, it doesn’t work from the word in any way.
