A couple of Ubiqiti Nano stations should work.

I'd use two of these in point to point.

I'm here for the Unifi gang bang as well.
Seriously, this is the way. Those Nano beams are cool and easy to set up and monitor. |

I'm running to 5AC's with 500mm dishes. I get about 400mbit over a 3.2 mile line of site shot.

Mikrotik Wireless Wire Cub60G kit. Goes about 500 yards at gigabit full duplex. It's plug and play, comes from Mikrotik preconfigured and paired and all you have to do it plug them in and align them.
I'm not a fan of Ubiquiti. I've never really been a fan of the UniFi product line (which AirMAX is not UniFi) and the quality of the AirMAX products has plummeted over the last decade. I've done some decently long shots with them such as a 19 mile shot at 78 Mbps using Rocket M5's (my best unlicensed shot was 150 Mbps at 36 miles using Mimosa B5c's and best licensed shot was 200 Mbps at 54 mile using Aviat Eclipse/IRU600's) but I've found their integrated antenna designs to be fairly poor (not what they claim at least) and the hardware is extremely prone to interference. That being said, I do keep a set of Rocket M5's as test radios for when I need to simulate a sub 100 Mbps link (I also have a set of Mimosa C5x's for the same purpose). |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I'd use two of these in point to point. https://store.ui.com/collections/operator-airmax-devices/products/litebeam-5ac-gen2 I need to get wifi 750 feet to my camper from in-laws house. Will this work? Do I need 2 of them? I have a power source I can use at about 500', not a direct line, then it would be about 300 feet to the camper. |

I set up a P2P bridge for my brother with nanostation M2s (IIRC) about 8 years ago. 1200 feet distance, shooting through slight tree obstructions (just a few trees in the neighbor's yard, not a forest). He never mounted the antennas outside like I suggested, nor did he aim them. They're just propped in windows of his 2 structures he wants connected pointing roughly in the direction of the other building. It is still working great for him. |

One is in the attic and the other is at the workshop window facing out. Works great and I don't have worry about grounding them. |

Can Someone please give me a dumbed down highlights version if how to use it? From my above post I am trying to get about 750' direct line of site to my camper from my in-laws house. Sounds like I need to get another one? |

Pro-tip - configure them and make sure they work as a pair in close proximity before you go climbing ladders and installing them. https://help.ui.com/hc/en-us/articles/205142890-airMAX-How-to-Configure-a-Point-to-Point-Link-Layer-2-Transparent-Bridge- |

Just ordered a pair of the NanoBeams. From what I found, the NanoBeams have better processors and more memory than the LiteBeams, so I decided to give them a try.

Got it installed and setup. The mother in law (bought the house next door) is now able to piggyback off of our Starlink until it's available for her. Thanks!

I use TP-Link CPE210 through thick foliage to get to my Ring cam, about 150 ft away, works great and cheap solution!

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's been about 3 weeks now. The piggyback setup has been working great. We can't even tell someone else is using our Starlink bandwidth, and they've been having 0 issues in their house with phones, tablets, TV's, Xbox, etc. They're even watching my Plex library now. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Got it installed and setup. The mother in law (bought the house next door) is now able to piggyback off of our Starlink until it's available for her. Thanks! AirMax is pretty rugged. I usually have to restart my Unifi gear every 30 or so days, mainly for updates but sometimes one of my ac pro will lose its wireless uplink. My AirMax PtP just stays up and running. |
