Hey guys!
I'd kindly ask you to advise me what equipment to purchase.
We live in a house of roughly 500m2 on 3 floors surrounded by land of 12000m2. The farthest point from the house is some 140m away. 4 people live in the house and there are usually 6 devices connected to WiFi. We have a modem/router provided by our cable provider that struggles to offer strong signal in the whole house, naturally. If we connect EAP225-Outdoor and place it on the outside of the house, would it be able to provide strong signal inside the house and 140m away?
Thank you for your help!

@paparazz01, coverage of EAP255-Outdoor is ~100m radius, but most client devices can't cover such a distance, especially if there are obstacles (trees) in between. Often clients can receive the SSID due to the EAP's coverage, but can't send back data. -89dBm is approaching noise level already, no data exchange possible at all.
As you can see in post #6, I get a RSSI of -75dBm at the basement (height of the EAP-Outdoor approx. 3.50m, obstacles in-between), which is still o.k., but only for mail/web access, definitely not for video streaming, VoIP or similar services.
