Hi, AlePeaz

In my opinion, CPE510 can well met your demand. All you need is to build a P2P link as I done before. And 150m is a piece of cake for CPE510.

Here are some of my experience.
1. Look at the image below:



a. Mount the two devices up out of the house, adjust both of them to face each other.
b. Wired connect CPE510 of house_1 to the main router(which provides internet access and play the role of DHCP server), and configure it in AP mode, DHCP disable, channel 1.
c. Setup CPE510 of house_2 in Client mode, with DHCP disable.
d. Wired connect a TL-WA701/801/901ND to the LAN port of CPE510 in house_2, DHCP disable on 701/801/901ND.
e. Configure 701/801/901ND in AP mode, channel 6.

2. You should pay attention to the obstacle between the two devices. LOS clearance is not enough, but a Fresnel zone. Refer to the link:

3. I think the tv antenna doesn't matter since it works on 30~3000MHz while CPE510 works on 5GHz frequency.

thanks for your answer man... but is there any chance that this will work with only one CPE510 ?...in from venezuela so is not easy to buy those hardware, i can buy 1 but two is hard...so maybe i can put an Tl-wr841nd in the second house ??... right now i have an WR720N...can i use that in the second house ??, if not... what do you recommend.....

PD: speed is not important, the second house will be OK with only 80 kb/s speed connection...

I'm not sure if TL-WR841ND/TL-WR720N can do the job well.
There are two main challenge:
1. Long distance up to 150m.
2. Obstacle such as walls.

I know someone use a 1043ND indoor to WDS far-end CPE510 in a distance of 200m and work well.
You can have a try, use WR720N in house_2 to WDS CPE510. It's kind of you to share us with the result.

Be careful here, 510 is a 5 Ghz device, 1043 and the rest of the devices you post in this thread are 2.4 Ghz

yeah i saw that....ok what if i use the TL-WA7210N

My mistake. Thank you for your remind. I've double check, the guy I mentioned used a 5210G.

That's OK for you to use a TL-7210N or CPE210 instead. Or a dual-band AP/router with CPE510 as well.:)

I have tried this scenario, with 5Ghz its impossible due to poor signal of 5Ghz Band (except if you use 2 CPE`s 510 which is impossible as i read before), you should try 2.4Ghz, for me it works at a distance about 140-150m with a thick wall between,signal is -51 to -53 dBm (on main Router TL-WDR3600ND with openWRT ,running as Access Point with WDS) and -66 dBm signal reading from my CPE 210 running as WDS client,The only con in this scenario is the LAN connector of my CPE-210 which limits Bandwidth to 100Mbps, it could reach 200! look at the snapshots

Hi, Labrok

It seems normal for CPE510 to get poor signal because 5GHz signal is more sensitive to obstacle and easier to loss.

As for the bandwidth control, you may misunderstand it:
1. The function is available in AP Router/AP Client Router mode.
2. This function control the internet bandwidth for each clients but not throughput inside LAN. In another word, it's a restriction between WAN-LAN transmission.

he is not talking about bandwidth control (aka QOS) he is talking about bandwidth, other brands instead of bandwidth control use the word QOS, traffic shaping, etc.
Tp-Link uses the same word for both
