Setup: 8 cottages maybe 100m between each cottage. Inside each cottage is a wireless router in a central point and each cottage is at most 20x20m so no need for multiple routers in a single cottage. The WAN side is connected (over fiber so no ground current issues) to a switch port and there it uses a statically configured 172.16.a.b IP. The other side is like your normal home intra lan, 192.168.x.y. Usage is by people who doesn't know that a usb charger that came with their 512G apple XS Max can also be used to charge their kidz 64G apple XS phone (or that playing online games on the apple ipad requires internet connection). They want to come and everything just works and short of that at most enter some wifi password. I did a presentation about the network setup in February last year (did send the slides then also but they are not on the website). /ps > > > On March 3, 2019 4:13:01 PM Peter Sjöberg <peters-oc...@techwiz.ca> wrote: > >> Looking to get some good wireless routers and wondering what to lookout >> for and what to look for. >> They will be in cottages far away so reliability is high on the >> requirement list.
