ZyXEL WiFi 6 AX1800 Wireless Gigabit Outdoor Access Point | IP55 Rated | Mesh, Seamless Roaming & MU-MIMO | WPA3-PSK Security | Cloud, App or Direct Management | PoE+ Injector Included | NWA55AXE

Needed to P2P to send internet to my shop and increase my security protocols.WPA3 will help with intrusion attempts from neighboring campground and give me enough bandwidth to stream my security cameras. The direct web based setup for this is easy, set one to root and another to repeater is the jist.Their support gave this as the method using their free Nebula app:Inside the Nebula app register the 2 APs to your free account and connect them to your local network.Once they show online, symbol will turn green, click each one and enable the Mesh & bridge option on both devices and then make sure that firmware and configuration are both up to date, meaning have your SSIDs, security protocols chosen and go under maintenance and chose update now. Then setup daily maintenance and they will automatically update with new firmware at your specified time.On the last step just remove one of the APs off your network and bring to the remote building or location you need your network bridged to, mount, plug into equipment, power up and wait about 5 minutes for the handshakes and authentication to take place and the remote location should be on your network.The 2 units will be connecting with each other automatically and will create a mesh network and also pass LAN traffic on the LAN port to the remote location.At 100m I have full bars of signal strength. and can use my WIFI out on my 2.5 acres of property as well.I created 2 SSIDs, one for the bridge traffic and one for guests.The app can be a little much for novices, but many features inside with even the free version of the software. Their support is quick to respond to requests and after explaining what you are trying to do they will walk you through setup if this is not helpful.There is no guide included, just an icon you scan with phone that links to the app, so as long as you do your research before deployment you can be up in running in the setup I have in under 30 minutes.There is only 1 light on device, on the LAN port when there is traffic, there are no zipties to mount to a pole, I used 2 I had on hand.There is a rubber plug to seal up the cable to the device, a small screw to secure the cover, 2 antenna you screw onto device, a POE device that supplies 48vdc.My old TP-Link units used POE adapters that were only 24vdc so make sure you use what they send you unless using appropriate switch. A huge improvement over what I had and much more affordable than the WIFi7 devices that are just coming out. WIFI7 will use WPA4 but that isn't official yet.

Provides Excelent Signal

This is my second purchase of this model. I bought one earlier for my son's room. His room was blocked from getting wi-fi reliably due to the walls of his room being brick and the signal was horrible. I ended up hard wiring one portion of his room and added the AP so that his other devices could get Wi-Fi.recently, another part of the house has been having issues getting clear signals and I purchased this second AP and just finished the wiring necessary to get it integrated into the network. Second unit is working fine. I should provide that end of the house with the signal that has been needed. I may buy a 3rd and put it in the front room and then tie them all together to make a very well covered mesh network. I like the cloud focused management of the devices, that makes my life easier. Some of the really nice advanced features require a monthly subscription, but those level of features are ones that I am not looking to implement. If I were a business, yeah I think that they would be worth paying for. Even some of the lower end advanced features are worth paying a few bucks a month for. Read and educated yourself on the features and decide which ones are worth your money and which ones aren't.

Poor customer support had to return could not do the install

I live in a 4br, 5 person household. Every single one of us does some working from home and/or extensive gaming and there's an absurd number of IoT devices across the home, so a lineup of good, strong APs is a must. For $75, these step up to the plate and then some. Although their range/coverage isn't terribly impressive, the fact that I can afford 3 of these for the same price of a lot of WiFi 6 APs makes it an incredible deal. With 3 in our home, every room has strong WiFi coverage including the porch, so anyone can expect ~200mbps and stable ping pretty much anywhere.The only possible gripe I can have is the fact that the Nebula portal isn't super user friendly. While it does offer loads of awesome features, the GUI could use a little TLC and could be difficult to figure out if you didn't know what you're doing.I'm seriously considering buying some more for my warehouse. These little things are just so great. It beats the stuffing out of a mesh system IF you're wired for it.Attached is a screenshot of a speed test connected to the AP (on a fiber internet connection). Mind you, the nearest AP was ~30ft away and had 4 thick walls to travel through when the test was ran. I've had much more expensive APs do way worse in better conditions.Summary: Buy these things. You will probably need a few, but this is the best budget WiFi 6 AP. If your home or office is wired with Ethernet, this is a fantastic solution for solid, reliable coverage.
