I have constructed a link across some fields to a small remote church in
order to connect their solar array for real time monitoring.
The link starts at a private house which has wi fi router. The owner is
happy to share his wi fi because he is away most of the time but does
not want any cabling at all in his house. The network login details are
entered here.
I have a TP Link TL-WA86ORE wi fi extender which has a single Ethernet
port which allows a connection to the wifi network. This is situated on
the corner of a barn about 20 meters from the house.
I then have an ethernet cable which leads to a TP LINK CPE 510 on the
other side of the building which forms a bridge to the another CPE 510
on the church across the fields. An ethernet cable connects to the solar
inverter and it all seems to work nicely.
However I have been asked if I could include a wireless access point in
the church using this link. In fairness to the generous donor who is
happy for it to go ahead, I want to ensure that everybody is not logging
on directly to his network. Would it be possible to to provide an access
point with its own SSID?. If so what hardware should I be looking for?
Thanks,
Roger
