[QUOTE="upnortheast, post: 7417136, member: 3010"] Aye, amazing what you learn to do by reading TFF :D If you ring the support boys at Solwise & explain your situation they will recomend suitable units. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.solwise.co.uk/[/URL] (other companies are available, just I`ve found them helpful ) We have had the Engenius 202 units for about 5 years now, So the probable set up would be - in your house a cat5 cable from your router to the bridge unit ideally on an outside wall. It would probably work through a window but you loose performance. The bridge unit will get its power from a POE box (probably supplied ) Shed end. 2nd bridge again on an outside wall Cat5 with a POE box in line back to a network switch,,something like this [SIZE=4]NETGEAR GS305 Unmanaged Switch[/SIZE] [SIZE=4]5-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch This one has 5 sockets, you can get as many as you need. Into these sockets you can plug your cameras, another wifi access point , or anything else you need. I get external Cat cable from cable monkey [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cablemonkey.co.uk/33-cable#/length-100mt[/URL] For longer lengths I think the tidyest way is to run the cable & terminate in a wall socket [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cablemonkey.co.uk/cat5e-modules-and-wall-outlets/27-ccs-cat5e-utp-rj45-loaded-faceplates.html[/URL] You need a punchdown tool to push the cables into the connectors [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cablemonkey.co.uk/cat5e-modules-and-wall-outlets/7890-ccs-krone-style-idc-punchdown-tool-5056045700424.html[/URL] Then at each end you just need short patch lead (various legths available ) to connect from the wall socket [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cablemonkey.co.uk/43-cat5e-rj45-patch-leads[/URL] I`m just a numb fingered old dairy farmer & it`s no bother at all doing this stuff Although cat6 is the highest spec cable for what we do 5e is fine & is easier to work with as the wire strands are more flexible hope that helps Edit You can get RJ 45 plugs to crimp on the end of the cable. I do find that a awkward for the afor mentioned fingers so prefer the method described above[/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
