I need help with setup
I need help with setup
I purchased 2 CPE210's. I will explain this the best I can because I am new to this. I would like to get wifi to another building that is approximately 800 ft away. Is the only way to do what I want is to setup one 210 in AP mode and the other in Client mode?

@Doc2485 I was wondering if you could tell me...does this look right as far as hookup goes on the client end of the CPE210?

@Kal22378 Yes that does look correct. If that is a modem ONLY...you will need a router also for routing and dishing out the IP's. Set these CPE210's up on your bench 1st and get them linked....then go mount them and align the best you can.

@Doc2485 Ok. The Modem is a router as well. Thank you for all of the help Doc.

@Doc2485 One more quick question. Sorry. Lol. My line of sight because of trees is limited. How far can I run the CPE210 away from the building I am powering it from? I am using cat6 shielded under ground cable.

@Kal22378 The trees will hurt the speed for sure....really needs a clear line of site. Doesnt really matter... ethernet cable can go 328'.
Better get a chain saw!!!!!

@Doc2485 ...Lol. I do have a clear line of sight about 200' away from the building. And I do have some trees that need to come down as well which might shorten the length from the building. Again...thanks!!
