Hi Guys,
I have a client that needs to connect via mesh (large open area that is paved, not possible to run cables) from one light post to another.
At one post (Base, has ethernet connection) I would like to put an E501 and accross the lot an E500 (no ethernet access). The E500 will give wifi access to users (very few maybe 10 at a time).
Why use an E501? Its because the distance between the 2 APs is 350 meters (1000 feet). I have used mesh between 2 E500 at about 100 meters (300 feet) but I would not like to go more than that with 2 E500 so thats why I use an E501 as the base (Extra Antena gain).
Anyone use a setup like this? will this work OK.
Where this will be used there should be minimal radio interference (Lot out in the boondocs)
