Ubiquiti NetworksLocoM2 2-Pack Nanostation LocoM2 AirMax Outdoor PoE CPE 2.4GHz 5+km

Kind of hard to setup the first time but work well, I've used these for years and they work well. Lightning has taken out a few but that is not the products fault.

i replaced two 15 year old bullet2's. quality products. i will always use ubiquiti products.

I needed to create a point to point WiFi bridge through a forest. After many hours of research, skimming product reviews, asking questions, and asking ChatGPT what it thinks, I landed on the Nanostation LocoM2. The product's specs and software configuration seemed to check all my boxes, and the price was really good. Yet I was still skeptical because of a major blocker: I have a fairly thick forest between the source AP unit and the destination station unit. All of this wood & foliage will certainly reduce signal strength.And it did - but not as much as I had expected. When I received the units, I configured the internet source unit in AP mode with Airmax ON. I configured the receiver in Station mode. Both set in the 20mhz channel. To my surprise, at a distance of around 500ft through a thick forest, I was able to achieve nearly 50Mbps, which is more than enough for my purposes (remote gate control + 1-2 cameras).FWIW, the station unit is connected via PoE to an Access Point (Mikrotik RouterBoard hAP AC Lite Tower RB952Ui-5ac2nD-TC) which provides a strong signal in about a 200ft radius in the area.I definitely highly recommend the Ubiquiti Nanostation LocoM5 and the Mikrotik AP for long distance WiFi capabilities.

In general, I love Ubiquity products. For most Ubiquity products, programming is not difficult and can easily be done with an app. Programming these is more of a challenge and I do not recommend using the app, especially if you have a lot of devices connected to your network. There are a few special issues. First, you need to assign two unique fixed IP addresses—one for each device. Second, you should find the least crowded frequency for your bridge. I recommend you find the CrossTalk video on programming these. It does a good job explaining most of the issues.

Other sellers advertised these as being pre-configured, but this particular set were both set as stations and they had the same IP address. The instructions were useless. Thankfully I found a good YT video that gave me the good info. You have to connect to each of them, and give them unique IP addresses on your network, then set one to be the AP and the other to be the Station. After that they worked great between the house and the barn, about 500 feet apart. Good signal despite the obstructions. The AP is inside my attic, too. I used the compass app on my phone to point them at each other. See Crosstalk Solutions video

They Do not work -- unable to connect to internet or my network. The price was right, but if it does not work and cannot connect to internet, it is pretty useless. Returning one, but other one was more than 90 days ago so I'm stuck for that one.

Biggest dislike was that setup was fairly tedious. I'd imagine for a pro it wouldn't even faze them. I had to go Youtube fishing to find out how to setup. There were several videos fortunately. Make sure the setup video is for the country your in. It makes a difference. Aside from setup, the system is, so far, working flawlessly. Internet in the garage has held rock steady since I put this in.

Works perfect between my house and barn, roughly 300' and through some brush and a few trees.Initial setup was tricky due to bad placement of radios (my bad) but once placed properly everything worked great.I have one radio mounted to the inside wall of my house and connected to the router via an 8 port switch. The other radio is mounted to the outside of my (metal) barn some 300 feet away. I get full signal strength, which I find quite amazing since the signal has to go through a few trees and vines.This guide is exactly my setup and is simple to follow "https://help.ubnt.com/hc/en-us/articles/205142890-airMAX-How-to-Configure-a-Point-to-Point-Link-Layer-2-Transparent-Bridge-"
