Installing a Wireless Link (Point to Point)

  • Internet problems at the Hive have necessitated an upgrade to Ubiquiti's NanoBeam AC Gen2 Wireless Bridge. In this video, I test the connection speed for a 0.3 mile link between the barn at the road where there is a cable internet connection and the house which is set back in the woods as well as review some of the caveats of installing a wireless bridge (wifi link) through trees.
    Not a sponsored video, purchased the gear on my own dime.

    Do you have any thoughts on the ubiquity rocket prism with a sector antenna? I’m in the same boat as you trying to get internet about 1/2 km without a clear los. Thanks

    I bet that metal Corrugated siding on the barn is causing some issue . I would try running a line from the barn to like a tripod where you have the clients receiver set up just temporary and see if you can increase speed. Just to test it. And if you find it it's working better set up some sort of a permanent solution

      Luckily the new setup has been working very well, even as Spring has arrived in NY and the trees have their full foliage out.

    Did you change any default settings for the radios? You can probably get some extra improvement by changing the power output and looking into how your constellation looks, as well as a firmware update.

    Question for you. I am looking at setting up a wireless long range target camera out to 1000y. Do you think this would work well?

    • @hivepark6844
      @hivepark6844  2 года назад

      Yeah, this would be a good setup for that. Still working strong one year later.

    If the power poles go all the way to your house you can run a fiber wire from pole to pole then put a media converter at each end to go back to cat5. I work for a phone isp that runs fiber and the wire is really light real easy to get it up high you just need a 28ft ladder to put it on the poles haha

    Instead of cutting the trees use 2.4 powerbeam 18dbi very powerful device and can go throw forest

    Ok so i am a bit late to the show here but you should hide your IP address when running speed test for one. The other thing is the way you setup the beams you should protect the wires a bit better from uv or use outdoor rated wire. Lastly, I have a building 4100 feet away that has living quarters in it so I trenched conduit from the house to the building and put 62.5 SM fiber for 100Gbps connection. The Ubiquiti beams as used as a backup and very solid

    Why don't you increase the height of both devices rather than cutting the trees? you will get a clear line of sight then.

      I got a quote to put in a utility pole at the barn that was something like $15k USD. Cutting the trees was cheaper in my case.

    I am living in India amd we have Tplink here. Can someone tell me good model for a 2 km wireless connection? I night have handful of coconut trees inbetween.

      900mhz with a yagi or a powerbeam ac 400 2.4ghz, all depends on height of the two locations and how much obstructions are inbetween

    Kind of a misleading title. This isn’t really a solution for anybody running any net work as you have to have the ubiquity system at the core. Put that in the title. Be more specific.

      Not true...we use Palo Alto as a FW. You can use the free version of Ubiquiti just to adopt and setup. You then don't need Ubiquiti outside of the P2P being first setup
