We live on a farm. There is one residential house with a hub inside. This has two Ethernet cables running underground to an office building and a portacabin in separate locations, which then connects to little hubs which extend the WiFi into those buildings.
We now want more WiFi to reach another area even further away. This is so we can run CCTV cameras. If it’s not possible we will have to get SIM card cameras and pay monthly.
But, before we do, what else can we do? I don’t think we should really be running anymore Ethernet cables off the existing hub elsewhere as, could it overload it? It just seems a lot for one residential hub.
Could we get openreach to do something?
Any ideas PLEASE throw them my way!
What’s your cellular signal like? I assume rather poor because it’s in the country.
Have you considered Starlink as a WAN source? Or is WAN sorted?
If WAN is fine and you just need to push traffic around site, Point to point or point to multipoint services are the best way. You’d need to consider things like PoE or midspan injectors for this to be viable of course so cable runs remain a topic to consider.
