So, setup of two CPEs is completely independent from other WiFi gear you want to connect over the directional link. The are not meant to communicate with WiFi security cams directly (you could do so, but only on short ranges depending on the coverage of the security cams). Then align the antennas (see the Installation Guide on how to do this). Remember to properly ground the CPEs to mitigate against ESD during lightning storms (use outdoor patch cable for the connection to the PoE adapter).īTW: there is an own subforum here for discussion about I think there is a mis-understanding here.įirst of all, CPEs are devices for directional links over long ranges. Link them together and mount them on the roofs of your house and the gate/garage.

Configure one CPE of a pair to run in AP mode, the other to run in Client mode.Ĭonfigure the SSID and security key on the CPEs running in AP mode and perform a WiFi survey on the CPEs running in Client mode. the link to the gate).įirst, set up each pair of the CPEs in your home to avoid having to climb on the roof in case there are problems.įind four unused IP addresses of your subnet, assign those static IPs to the CPEs. the link to the garage) and which should use CPE510 (e.g. So, first decide which link should use the CPE 210 (e.g. To deploy CPEs successfully, you need at least a basic knowledge of IP addresses and WiFi settings. What you can do is to link two CPE210 or two CPE510, but not a CPE510 with a CPE210. The former is a device operating in the 5 GHz band only, while the latter is a 2.4 GHz device.
