    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi L&LD and SFX , Mediterranean climate with hot summer, mild winter, 300 sunny days and less than 30 rainy days per year. I know it is heaven :) Besides the grounding it simplifies also electricity needs, because I won`t need power for the router at the BBQ. I am considering an AP at the...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    That is a great idea. I was not thinking into details about how exactly place the cable and this is a very efficient option provided for me. I am glad I found this forum :)

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi Degrub, you are amazing ! Thank you so much for your help. I am reading about the VLAN option that you proposed earlier. It is interesting and very promising especially since I found out a VLAN option in the router settings: However the steps mentioned in the article you gave me are complex...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi Gatorback, I am happy for every opinion. I am currently checking two options: WAN and VLAN. VLAN has a great potential. I have read the article Degrub posted here and I am not sure if I can do that. I know about ubiquiti. I have checked Ubiquiti unifi long range AP and nanostation. 5GHz...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi System Error Message, thanks very much, I appreciate your understanding of my limited knowledge as I am a laymen. Although this is a theoretical knowledge going far beyond of what I intended to achieve here it will help me to make correct decisions. Coxhaus already tried to tell me this and...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi, coxhaus, I do not see in any of the devices an option to create VLAN. Because of this and also because I wish to create a separated network working under main one a WAN is still the best option. Do you know about other option without spending bucks on new devices?

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi sfx2000, right now I use have all devices under the main internet router (Speedport) set as APs. Although it is working, it is not what I want. I am living in the second house and will share my neighbor`s internet connection. They have the main Speedport 2i router and one small bridged router...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi Coxhaus, I have hard time to understand you. Where is the 3rd layer? First layer is the main internet router with one other router connected as an access point. A second layer is the WAN router (which I don't know how to configure) with three more access points. I am a laymen and I called...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi degrub, after hours of work without success, I tried to configure all routers into a bridge mode with WiFi, turning them into access points where a sole DHCP server is Speedport 2i. This worked. It is not what I want, but it made me feel better :) Small victory helping to keep me sane :) I...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    here are the pictures of "Port binding" I have configured the internet and WAN ports, pictures H108L WAN01-Internet port and H108L WAN01-WAN port. Into the LAN 1 goes the cable from the main Speedport 2i router and from the LAN 2 I will go to the next router in series.

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi Degrub, I intend to create a cable connection between the routers on each floor. The house is made of stone and concrete+metal so it needs a router on each floor and cabling in-between. End device (phone/tablet/notebook) will be connected via WiFi. Naturally I want my house and BBQ to operate...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    Hi, thanks for your advice. I asked a technician for help because I am not an engineer. I live in a small village by the sea, quite far from nearest town. When the technician told me the price just to come and assess the situation I thanked him and said good bye. So I am going to do this by...

    connecting two buildings and barbeque

    buildings are about 60 yards apart, barbeque is in the middle. Of course visiting a shop will be necessary, but 300ft cable with 15 connectors cost less than a single aerial. I am not fan of WiFi in this case. Sleeping under an aerial capable of heating my lunch is not healthy. I prefer low...
