I have a similar setup to the Ubiquity system but use the Mikrotik Groove ( not unlike the Bullet) and a Mikrotik Hap ac2 router. The router itself can be powered over 12v and has a POE port so it powers the Groove at the same time. They both run RouterOS and thus the management tools are a little

I'm using a Ubiquiti Bullet with 9db antenna as a booster, connected to a basic home router, total cost about $200CAD, uses very little power on a small inverter. The Bullet requires you to choose a wireless network using their web interface, and a bit of other setup to work correctly. For now I ju

To amplify the last post: What you want is a VPN setup. What a VPN does in simple terms is encrypt the traffic flowing through the wifi connection and route it through the VPN server on the way to and from the internet. This means if you connect to the Dr Evil and KGB Associates wifi access poin
