EAP110 and X50-Outdoor
I am wanting to place a Ring Camera at my gate which is 70 metres away from my current X50-Outdoor Mesh node.
The current camera connects to the X50 fine at around 70% signal strength (shown at the camera). However, the current camera has twin antennae. Taking the Ring Camera to the gate shows a poor signal, likely due to the lack of external antenna.
In the cupboard, I have an old EAP110 that I used before getting the X50-Outdoor and 5 other Deco for indoors. Is it possible to utilise this to improve the signal to the gate?
My idea is to use the EAP with the X50-Outdoor. The way I am thinking is to use the PoE Injector in the normal way, but to plug the Ethernet from the EAP110 PoE injector to the second Ethernet port of the X50-Outdoor. The EAP110 will be mounted as close as I can get to the Ring Camera at the gate (the front of my garage). I relaise it won't "Mesh" but I have the Omada software to sort out the connection. Will ths work? I assume EAP110 is not EasyMesh, it doesn't appear to be?
From what I can recall, the EAP110 range was better than the X50-Outdoor, would people agree/disagree? Is it just more sensible to ditch the X50-Outdoor in favour of the EAP110 and use a Powerline Adaptor to get the signal from my (detached) garage to the house?
Any other suggestions?
