OMRON and wifi

I was recently gifted the responsibility of managing an OMRON C200H. I believe is the model of the PLC and my office is about 1000 yards away from the building it resides in. Seeing as how I do not desire walking over and setting up a laptop every time there is a problem, I would like to be able to connect to it wirelessly. OMRON offers several models of Wifi ethernet access points and clients. Which ever one I purchase will be IEEE 802.11g as that has the highest speed and distance of all the models they offer. My questions are;

Would that be sufficient to cover the distance I need and what should I do about a "hub" to plug into?

I can install an aerial on the outside if necessary.

Thanks in advance.
