The device worked well for a 300ft connection

We used this on our farm to connect one building to another. We needed internet access in the center of the farm to run a temperature/humidity sensor cloud system. The device worked great for a 300ft connection paired out of the box after we applied power. We can now install additional sensors in cold stores and greenhouses and provide a wireless router at the other end of the line for better internet access on the farm (mainly for data entry). We were limited for a while because we didn't want

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Unusable features

Installed to remotely monitor and regulate the pressure of a well pump

I bought and installed this on one of our well pumps at an industrial facility I work for for remote monitoring and allowing our boiler room to regulate the water pressure in the facility. We couldn't run network cable to the well pump station as it is far from our infrastructure and has no accessible routes to do so, and we wanted to be able to see the state of the well pump. and make settings remotely, as this is very important for the operation of the system. It worked perfectly. I haven'tโ€ฆ

  • One year trial

Very simple and now my wifi is extended to the garage

Our home wifi does not cover the garage where my husband is trying to set up his office. I was looking for extensions, but then I came across this bridge extension product. I've heard that extension cords don't work well over a distance, so I went with this bridge option, even though it's more expensive. When it arrived we didn't have to put it up or anything. As soon as I connected my home router to the device, another one in the garage, and then plugged in the power, the internet was up andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Modern

Easy to install and use

Fast internet is available in a building about 300 meters away, but the range is much greater. Worked for about 2 years with no problems, then we had a power outage where the power flickered several times before finally cutting out. This reset the devices to factory defaults resulting in no internet in the barn. Resetting devices didn't help. I contacted Cambium support. Within hours, they responded with an 8-page guide on how to reconfigure devices. I have no IT experience but I got it up andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great value for money
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

No simple plugin installation. Confusing technical support.

My home WiFi installers were offering $2000 to connect WiFi to my pool, so I bought this product instead as it was advertised as easy, pre-programmed/prepared. I was disappointed when I first set up the antennas, probably only 200 feet from the pool house, and it immediately turned off the wifi in my main house. Technical support had me reboot the system and then replace the entire cable. (It was a pain since it's in the attic.) Okay. I didn't get it, I'm not technically savvy. $25 for cableโ€ฆ

How can someone have trouble setting up?

I will first explain that I am a network infrastructure architect. I design, configure and deploy networking solutions (wired and wireless) every day for almost 20 years. I've recently started installing them for our company in remote locations (oil and gas industry). I used to order individual items, spend a day or two setting up IPs, SSIDs, VLANs, and security, and deploy them in a lab or controlled environment, test them, and finally move on to the field deployment phase.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Exchange availability
