TP-LinkCPE710 | 5GHz AC 867Mbps Long Range Gigabit Outdoor CPE for PtP and PtMP Transmission | Point to Point Wireless Bridge | 23dBi | Passive PoE Powered w/Free PoE Injector | Pharos Control

Worked better than hoped. I Purchased 3 of these to replace and old 2.4Ghz Tycon. I am using and a chain of intermediary routers and repeaters. Configured 1 as the AP and attached it to the roof. The was placed on the workshop some 350 feet away. Both directed at each other. I now get full line rate to the internet at some 360MB which is my rate through my provider.My third was placed as a client 450 feet away through some trees at a 110 degree agle from the way the AP is pointing at the Workshop. Slightly behind it to the right. The roof that the AP is mounted on cuts the line of site and the wood sheething under the shingles is foil wrapped. Surprisingly I get 135Mbits to this Client. Using the wavelink High gain routers to reach the old network I was only receiving about 4-5Mbits. Very pleased as this runs wifi for a remote wireless gate and a Wireless Camera.Just ordered a 4th to place in the barn around 275 feet away.Note: When first installed, I had stability issues. It was bouncing connection where the AP would be seen by the client for a bit then it would not. I decided to upgrade the firmware to the latest on the Client. The upload of the binary file completed but it appears I lost connection during the write. to flash. This corrupted the units software. The unit never came back.After investingations and using the third unit I had bought. I found the 100 ft Cat 6 cable was causing issues. Isolated out and put in a new cable and everything came up clean.The problem was the original CPE710 was corrupted during the image upgrade. I located a firmware upgrade procedure on the TPLINK website for the Pharos equipment and was able to do a reflash of the unit with the newest Binary file. It is revived configured and the unit is back working.Suggestion: TPLINK should add the short procedure to relash a unit if corrupted downloads to their manuals.

Wow these are great. I read other reviews, and was unsure if it would work for me. My unit is a 600 foot run thru heavy Oaks, and it works perfect. Very configurable for your needs. Minor IT knowledge to get it going. Now Mom-in-law does not have a $75 internet bill. I did buy 2 of these. One at my house, and one at the other end. Hooked it up to a wireless router, works great. Very happy. But can be used also as an extender with only one unit.

I purchased this to provide internet to our new Airbnb that is about 1/2 mile away from our home with a clear line of sight. I was hopeful this would save the extra expense of a second ISP and I was shocked at how well it worked. I set up one unit as the AP and the second as a Client. That process took less than 15 minutes. I mounted the AP unit on our home and took the second unit down the street. To my amazement and delight I began receiving an adequate signal inside the house! Once mounted outside I was able to stream video on three TVs perfectly. There was no drop off in speed from our home. I believe there may be some confusion in the negative reviews. You must purchase two units to send and receive.

This item works well. I have a driveway 1000ft long and can pick up WiFi clearly at the end of it. The only difficult part is getting the cone pointed where you want after a certain distance. It's also nice that it's POE so only one cable goes to the device

Had a cheap pair of antennas manufactured in China BEFORE these and about every other day I would have to reset them just to keep the connection up and running for our internet in another building. THIS particular pair of antennas, however, I haven't had to do this even once. The difference is astonishing! Amazing antennas! ...and I highly, highly recommend them for purchase!

I received hardware version 2.0, apparently the current HW version is 2.8. Device does not support WPA3. The mount is a little rickety and held on by only one hose clamp even though the device is fairly front-heavy.

TP-Link makes it very difficult to deal with them if a product under warranty is defective. They demand all kinds of proof of purchase, make you submit registration and other forms related to the purchase. They make you wait and they are slow to respond. The worst is that if your item is defective and under warranty, they make you pay to send it back to them before they will consider sending you a replacement. Shipping is, in most cases, is significant to the cost of the product. In short, their "warranty" is pretty much worthless: costs way too much in time and money to use there products......A bad business model, and certainly not an industry standard.

I bought two of these to get a decent network connection to my out-building.My out-building is about 100' away, well within the advertised range of these bridges but there are a few trees in the way and another building well within the Fresnel Zone.Setup was easy, one needs to set one as an access point and the other as a client.Configuration was easy using industry standard terminology. It irritates me when other companies feel the urge to use creative non-standard terminology in what they mistakenly believe will make their products easier to install. Thank You TP-Link for using standard terminology.There is a 23dBi gain on the parabolic antennas to push the serviceable range out to several kilometers.Since I am running them so close, I was able to run the transmit power from 27 dBm down to 15 dBm and still maintain a 50 dB signal to noise ratio.I did not run an Iperf test yet so I'm not sure about the throughput. I do know they are faster than my 100 Mbps rural Internet though. When I get around to running an Iperf I will update this review.Physically they aren't as heavily built as Ubiquiti's bridges, but they are well made and should hold up well.I would buy them again.
