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

I installed a pair of these last September at my rural home because I had to backhaul my Starlink connection from my pole barn (where I had clear line-of-sight) to the house (which has no view of the sky due to all the trees). One CPE710 is hanging off the side of my barn connected to the Starlink router, and the other is pole-mounted behind the house with some Cat6 running through a conduit to my house router/AP. They've been through snow, rain, and ice storms. Temps have ranged from the low 90's down into sub-zero territory, and reliability has been 100%.If you have zero networking experience then you might struggle a bit as setup is more complex than a wifi router with a phone app. Since I already had access points on both ends of the p2p connection, I used a separate SSID and wifi channel specifically for the pair of CPE710s, and I set the SSID to hidden. Otherwise you can get clients trying to connect to the CPE710 instead of your preferred access point, and the result will be some stability issues. For my use case I connected via ethernet, assigned static IPs, set one to AP mode, one to client mode, punched in the SSIDs/keys, tweaked some settings a little bit, and I was off and running at full-speed.As I type this, they have been up for almost 3 months without a reboot and transferred untold terabytes of data, so I have zero complaints. I do have them both running through a small UPS which is plenty to let them keep going through a moderate power outage.

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.

El producto es muy buen, lo estoy usando para hacer llegar el internet de un edificio a otro. He visto señales de hasta 1km

Works perfect

Incredible very easy to set up and once I was using a windows 10 PC and not a windows 11 it only took about half an hour, plus the two are barley aligned and I'm getting this signal

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 used this product to transport Wi-Fi about 1km to a second house location that only had poor quality DSL availability with speeds of 2 to 6 Meg. We now are enjoying 550 Meg service which now allows us to stream media and use our cell phones (Wi-Fi calling).Prep work: Removed some trees for clear line of sight, ran Cat 6 cable from the fiber source to the soffit of house one, purchase 25’ outdoor cat 6 cable for second house.Mounted the first device under the soffit of house one, pointed antenna to location of house two antenna location, set PC with static IP, connected and configured as access point (ap), used guided config. app. set Wi-Fi SSID name, and manually set distance. Set up second device as client, used app antenna tuning tool to optimize signal from ap. Returned to ap and adjusted antenna using antenna tuning in app, returned to client side and further adjusted antenna to maximize signal from ap. Final result was signal strength of -58/-58, SNR 50, noise -91. Connected client side to existing Google mesh device, power cycled all Google mesh devices, power cycled all Wi-Fi devices connected to the Google mesh network.Notes: My Wi-Fi speed increased when I reduced my manual distance setting from 7KM to closer to my actual distance of 1KM (leaving it on automatic the system was setting it at .5 KM). My initial signal strength was in the -70s, with antenna tuning I was able to get it down to about -58. I had to restart my Google devices a couple of times to get the full speed. Test your transmit speed with your pc hard wired at the cable plugging into the ap and the same at the client side to clearly understand your speeds. I was never able to connect my pc at the client side and tested the speed via the Google home app on the client side mesh network.
