Line of sight WiFi.

[Courier]

(Duplicate post also in Infrastructure ).

As above, we currently use an industrial router and sim card to access a laptop for our turbine SCADA but would prefer an in house solution.

We definitely have line of sight (with 3 metres of spare height) from from the gable end of the house to the turbine shelter about 450 metres away.

There is mains power at both ends.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

I have seen Ubiquiti antenna used in marinas and they seem to work fairly well although i have never had to use them.

If you explain your situation to the support boys at Solwise https://www.solwise.co.uk/ They will suggest solutions.

No connection with this company, just found them very helpful in the past

The Litebeams I bought last year actually ended up costing less than the grant paid me! Should've bought more in hindsight.. Can put internet in a lot of places when the units are free

I bought them off Amazon but I would avoid doing that, getting hold of the paperwork was a nightmare.
This site seems the cheapest I can find
