You need to clear the trees if you want 400 megs. Build a small tower and then anything will work.

For such a short distance, depending on the weather where you are, you may even look into free space optics. Lasers don't have the fresnel zone clearance issues, interference issues, etc. that RF has. If your area isn't subject to fog, high humidity, heavy rains, etc, then you may be able to get a reliable gigabit link, but rain fade is pretty killer on these. Slower speeds can make the link more stable, though.

I would not be looking at MT for 400 megs. You should look at Ubiquiti Airfiber.
