Thought I’d jump in on this thread as been doing quite a bit of networking on the farm. Ubiquiti has been very reliable for us instead of Solewise stuff, I have a huawei 5G router in the attic with a directional antenna pointed towards the nearest mast which is 2km away in my field fortunately, it’s still only 4G but We are getting these speeds
That is download and upload speeds
then placed 3 ubiquiti access points on the ceilings upstairs connected to the router and the farmhouse has full uninterrupted Wi-Fi, being in the attic it’s easy to run the cat5 cables and thick walls aren’t an issue, also mounted 2 outdoor access points on the edge of the roof outside and a nano beam point to point kit which sends a signal to the calving yard and dairy for internet. It’s never dropped out or let us down.
As others have said got 2 fibre cables going straight past the farm and open reach refuse to connect us, 4mb ADSL will be getting disconnected shortly. I’d also like to tell BT to remove there poles!
should also add I bought 5G equipment so when the mast gets upgraded we will get even faster speeds
