Model: EAP110-Outdoor  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

We have two EAP110 Acces Pointes, one is on the outside of a shed and is hard-wired into our network and creates an SSID wi-fi. Then we have a second EAP110 across the road in plain sight. How do we connect the two so they are using the same wi-fi network? Thank you.

Hi  @HawkinsIT 

 

Do you need the second EAP110-outdoor wirelessly connecting to the first one?

EAP110-outdoor can't do that.

 

You can consider a pair of CPE510, and build a wireless bridge.

Or  EAP215-bridge KIT combined with Omada controller.

Can the 2nd EAP110 at least see the wi-fi network? Or no?

What do you mean "see"? Even the second EAP can receive the signal from the first one, it can't pick it up.

  @HawkinsIT The second EAP110-outdoor has to be configured in repeater mode. This work in my similar setup. You can configure this after fresh start (do a reset) of the EAP110-outdoor. See https://www.tp-link.com/en/support/faq/3646/

  @SebStaeubert 110 in repeater mode is correct answer.

 

There should be a rule against forum mods marking their answer as *best*, especially when it isn't.
