Model: EAP225-Outdoor  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 5.1.5 Build 20240313 Rel. 33928(4555)

Hi,

I have an external EAP-225 that is struggling to get Wifi to an Security camera that is attached to the outside of a well insulated back of a Garden room (it reaches another on the front easily).  I am looking for suggestions on the best way to get the Wifi to reach the Camera effectively. I have power in the garden room. I am going to try a 

TP-LINK TL-PA4010 AV600 Powerline Adapter as a first option.  Thanks.

Hi  @Steve_Morgs 

 

If the garden is under the same electrical system as your main router's, the TP-LINK TL-PA4010 AV600 Powerline Adapter is a good choice.

 

The topology would be:

 

Internet source---PA4010===PA4010---EAP225-outdoor)))(((camera

 

 

 

---  Ethernet connection

=== powerline connection

)))((( wifi connection

  @Vincent-TP 

Thank you. I have ordered a fresh set of Powerline  TL-WPA8631P/TL-WPA8635P that I will try. At the moment I am unsure if the new garden building is on the same electrical circuit.

Hi  @Steve_Morgs 

 

If they are not on the same electrical circuit, the TL-WPA8631P/TL-WPA8635P won't work.

  @Vincent-TP Fortunately they are in the same circuit and working perfectly
