Don't Hamm operators have a low speed data protocol?

Also, I bet some industrious hackers could hack together a microcontroller, photodiodes, and cheap lasers for a line of sight connection as a bridge.

It would be a fun hackathon project to build such a thing out of the components you could find in typical office equipment, and I wouldn't expect it to take a competent EE more than a few hours (if you'll allow continuous wave Morse code as a transport layer).

But based on where the embassy is, it's probably easier to stand near a window and get on the WiFi from Pret a Manger next door.
