Tags: #EAP-610
Model: EAP610-Outdoor  
Hardware Version: V1
Firmware Version: 20230330

The setup. A starlink router is broadcasting to a EAP-610 in trailer 1 just 40 meters away. The EAP-610 at trailer one is then broadcasting to EAP-610 in trailer 2  at 450 meters away. The signal strength, admittedly, is not ideal at -76dbm. According to the Omada app, I am getting 5mbs download however multiple internet speed testing website shows I am at 30mbs. If I connect EAP-610 at trailer 2 to the starlink router with -82dbm, the Omada app shows my download speed at 100mbs and the internet websites shows similiar connection speed. All connections are being made with 5ghz. 

 

What I do not get is why do I have such poor performance when I am connecting from AP to AP and what can I do to improve this situation? Thanks

Hi  @Mattrocks 

 

450 meters is too far away for two EAP units to build a mesh network.

 

You may turn to EAP215-bridge KIT.

If I get an EAP-215 wireless bridge, it transmits a 5ghz singal. Can I think use the EAP610 then to broadcast both 2.4ghz and 5ghz signal? We have some old equipment that needs the 2.4ghz signal. Thanks

Hi  @Mattrocks 

 

Do you mean plug an EAP610-outdoor into the client EAP215-bridge KIT? 

Yes, that will work.

 

Then the topology would be:

 

Internet source--EAP215-bridge KIT_1 ))) (((  EAP215-bridge KIT_2-----EAP610-outdoor
