Great video, thanks a lot. not sure you or someone in this loop could help: is there any best wifi solutions for train wagons? Cabling between wagons is not possible, and very thick metalic wagons are stopping wifi signal (inside is good). The idea is to set up a big wlan and with a local server to host an entertainment system for passengers. I would like to use tp-link omada sdn but i can't interconnect each AP (wireless mesh) because of bad signal. im thinking if it's possible to put one of the antennas outside of the cabin to establish wireless mesh, another antenna serves users inside. Any ideas for brainstorming?
I have a 32 degree 19db that works great for what I need and I don't have all the hesitation and other problems that I had with the lap top internal that I had been using.
I wish to connect WiFi to 1 buildng in 1 station and when ever will i go I'm connected, my problem is that how far and the speed I use to... and the height of the WiFi signal I put from the building .. Please guide me
I want a 120 degree short distance sector antenna for our rv park , one would need to be for a distance of about 400ft the other 90-120 degree would need to cover about 1500ft. so from your video i want a low gain with a wide vertical beam correct. I have 2 90 degree sectors but they are only 7% vertical. I can not get it to work for shit.. Do you have anything that would cover my two areas. Or maybe a panel antenna would be better. Thanks.
Hi there, this scenario has a lot of different components. First off, what radio are you plugged into? Next, the 7 degree vertical is not an issue if you aim it correctly. I suggest you reach out to one of our techs at Support@SimpleWiFi.com or call us. To do this properly we need to have talk.
great video love it thanks for the intel, i have a question i got the 2ghz and 5ghz parabolic grid antennas from u guys and i would like to know which side of my wifi usb adapter is the 2ghz side and which is the 5ghz side , so i can plugged in the antennas ,. thanks
Can you use the same channel for each one? Can you use the same SSID for each antenna? How do you hook all 3 antennas to access points and bring it all together into a switch? Wouldn't you lose most of the power thru that cable? Wouldn't an outdoor AP/Router be MUCH better.
Hi Craig, 1) Yes you can 2) yes you can 3) Yes you can 4) No that is why I speak on the importance of thick cables. Only 3db per 100' when using L-400 cable. 5) The answer depends on what you are trying to do. An outdoor omni-directional AP won't reach nearly as far as a base station scenario. Even a directional one will have a narrow beam width. This is why WiFi networks and RF in general is so difficult, every situation is unique.
As I understand there are three antennas to a router. does each of them emit both 2.4Ghz and 5Gh signals? Or, do two of them emit 2.4Ghz and one emit 5Ghz signal? How do i know which antenna i should detach from router? does it really matter which antenna to detach at all?
That is actually our anechoic chamber used for testing antenna radiation patterns. See inside it here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-I8AgD9_Sji4.html
So basically you get you own internet from your provider and then send it out over Wi-Fi. How many people can be using your Wi-Fi at the same time? How do you manage who is using it?.
I'm in the process of 'trying' to build a long range p2p encrypted VOIP network for my employees, with line of sight and no obstruction how far does the 120 degree antenna broadcast on 2.4ghz ? Also , same exact question , but for 5ghz ... Thanks , I found the website to be very helpful but I couldn't find a definitive answer in terms of distance to these questions hoping you can help out.
I just want to know, is it better than The ubiquiti products. Currently I am using Airmax 2.4 ghz 15dbi Sector antenna. It's range are pretty good but I need more . Can you help me with that? Thank you
Sir I have a two storied house and am not able to get complete coverage inside the house . I have a tp link ac1200 on first floor and a second netgear wifi range extender. But it doesnt seem to give complete coverage .Using these will it solve the problem?
Mcgyver had on show take a bucket, a large drill bit, and copper wire to computer. Then point bucket out window to where you get a signal. Did not show how to connect to computer.
How much distance can I expect if I put 2x120° sector antenna 18 dbi facing the same way as a MIMO station I want to be able to have internet connection on my phone anywhere in my farm and if is possible the town as we 1mile distance
Thanks. I'm in remote Australia where there is no internet or mobile coverage. I have plenty of solar power and some high vantage points. I'd like to set up a WiFi network so that I can monitor tanks and turn on pumps etc over an area of about 3 klm (say a mile). Is this possible?
@@SimpleWiFi No internet here, I have to drive for 2 hours to get to the internet. If I climb a mountain I can get 1 bar of mobile coverage - enough to send a text but it is quite a climb. I've been told that I should look at radio frequency modules but my research tells me they won't have the distance capacity and are subject to interference.
Then I can't really help you. I can help you once you have an internet connection to better manage that signal. Have you looked into satellite internet?
@@SimpleWiFi In Regional Australia, the national disgrace is that the satellite (Skymuster) was designed for 30k users there are actually more than 700k using it also, it doesn't work when cloudy and there are other weather constraints - so, it is effectively useless. That's why I want my own LAN without internet access. I'm (perhaps foolishly) convinced that it must be possible to set something up that will allow me to monitor tank water levels remotely and turn things on and off. I just don't have the language to describe the system I need. I only have this simple use-case (re water monitoring and control).
very clear video ,many thanks. However i am wondering if everyone comply with legal limit of wifi power transmission (in my country is only 100mw = 20dbm).i know that professionals use high gain antennas , How is it possible to coverage 2km or 3km area with only 100mw power transmission ?
They dont cover 2km-3km with just 100mW. They can cover those distances using a point to point bridge which sends signal between 2 exact locations. Using this scenario the power limit usually greater.
very educative video! thanks a lot : I do have a question: Is there a limit on the number of devices that an antenna can support? For example, How do i know what is the right antenna for a family with a desktop, a laptop, 2 tablets, and 3 cells; or how do i know what is the right antenna for a college campus with 25 thousand people, i mean cells and computers on their classrooms, administration, etc. those are just two scenarios, to help illustrate my question. thanks
It's not the antenna that are important in this case - it's the radio that manages the traffic. There is a specific access point for each type of scenario. Antennas only manage RF footprint.
Can you make video how to connect and setup far away internet like public wifi on nighthawk and panel antenna, I just received my nighthawk and can't setup and connect any free wifi
SimpleWiFi I found something maybe u would interest this u can use nighthawk without sec router to scan WiFi signals around you, the way is to install asusrwt merlin to netgear nighthawk, i swear it's better than netgear genie interface
What is the maximum amount in meters you can extend the antenna cable before you start to get signal loss? I know the WiFi transmitting power is very low but just curious if I have to extend to more than 100 feet (30.48m)
You begin experiencing cable loss immediately. So the question is how much loss can you tolerate in order to still have a usable signal. Solution is to use the thickest cable possible.
Great video, I would like to know the complete kit list to create my own system in Haïti. I need a long range WIFI antenna . In my cottage in the country the signal is very distant. I would like to design a WIFI system so that i can subscribe to an internet company that provides services around the world. How can i suggest? Thanks a lot for your understanding and waiting your answer....
Hi Dear, What is the difference between the WIFI REAPEATER and my WIFI Base Long Range. In the future I will use my own WIFI for a home radio station. Then I need a long-range UHF / VHF antenna too. I have already bought a Tower of 150 feet so I can install UHF antenna and my own WIFI or WIFI REAPEATER. The last question. Can you tell me about what UHF / VHF antenna kit I have to buy that is of good quality. Then, between the outdoor 24DBI parabolic GRID and the outdoor 14DBI panel which is better. NB, I am looking for the most powerful booster and routers and good quality too. The province where I live is very far from the signal. Thanks a lot for your understandind. Waiting your answer in order to make the right choice of products.
The big question I and everyone else here has. is "how far can this thing transmit da internet" in (miles) in (city blocks) in (football fields) anything.
Same answer as above. However that antenna is really fantastic. Let's say you have it up 30' in the air in the middle of the desert, it will go close to a mile.
Hi Sir , I Hope You and your team is Good & Fine. Sir i am Starting New Wifi Internet Connection in my Area i am from Nishatabad Pakistan Faisalabad.Sir here buildings higher and lower .
Sir great video. I'm learning allot from this.But please Help me sir Witch Devices and Antenna i used for Clients using in door wireless router.But Sir i Visit some other Wifi Setup but All they Say to client ( Client antenna is fit on the roof).. Sir i want to just 1 miles coverage but my network single strongly using indoor non of outdoor fix of client antenna.
You need a clear line of sight so inside an urban environment it will not go far. Unfortunately I cannot help you remotely as the plans you are undertaking require much more research and study in person.
