I built an entire grid of these, very reliable.  UISP is free for monitoring.  Just got to remember to use backup power in rural areas for backhaul components.

Well, you could use these:

I would not use first gen or M series Nanostations, too many problems (lockups, tape over LEDs degrading from UV and letting in rain, etc.)  Even the AC series which are much improved have some quirks, sometimes they get flaky if you run them at the low end of U-NII-1 like 5180 MHz.

We have switched to using ePMP Force 300-16 for short links between buildings, but partly for the cnMaestro cloud management if they are hidden behind a customer managed router.  They are like 3 times the cost of a NS5AC Loco, but when comparing keep in mind the ePMP radio includes a POE, the Nanostation does not.  The Loco is much smaller, like a bar of soap, than the F300-16 which is like an oversized rearview mirror.

365 feet from my garage.  Needs to be wireless.  Connecting to the web browser in an RMS200 telemetry board.  10 mbps would probably work.  Prefer 100.  Like to have an all in one radio/antenna.  POE.  Pair of Nanostations would probably do the job.

Not sure if there is something better out there.  Of course like to keep it under $10K...

  Power?  LOS? So many devils in the details...  Desired B/W? Budget?..   Come on Chuck, cough up some more info!

            Not new, and I haven’t used them, but there’s this:

            Could you use powerline networking? I’ve used these:

            but you could probably use something like this since you
            don’t need WiFi:

            This assumes the telemetry board location is on a branch
            circuit from the same electrical panel as the house, and
            that it is indoors.

            Need to connect a telemetry board to my house home network.

            Extending the LAN.  Probably 750 feet away.

            Anything new or better these days for this type of thing?
