Hello, a bit of advice required, if you'd be so kind, for this computer numpty (me)

I have been fortunate enough to get a Countryside productivity grant to part fund a weather station and wireless repeater. I have a good contact for the weather station, but repeaters are a bit of a minefield!

Its about 80m from the office router to the nearest building, with a couple of trees to block line of sight. Its about the same distance again to where the wifi would be most use.

Purpose is for remote access of cameras, and electronic spray records. It would also improve mobile phone signal, which is at its worst in the staff bait room or in the workshop (where they are most likely to be when I need to speak to someone, and where they are most likely to be when they need to call someone)

Quality and reliabiliy of device more important than price

Any experiences/recommendations?

Thank you

Spud
