Subject: RE: Extending wifi.



NE OK
I'm using wireless bridges all over the place. It's easier than wired. At my parents, between their house and the small barn, I use TP link CPE 510s. 5 GHz line of sight antennas. the shortest distance is about 100 feet I use them for and the longest is about 2.3 miles. Pretty easy.. I've also been helping neighbors and friends set up the same for various things at their places.

They are Power over ethernet (PoE). You can use them to "catch" your wifi, broadcast it to another antenna at a remote location, and then drop it via wire to another router or just rebroadcast the signal at that location. The only thing I don't like about the TP link antennas is that there is either a 2.4GHz version or a 5GHz, you can't be dual band with just the antennas...

I own about 10 of them. I've only ever had one fail and it was after a power outage.
