This is the first of three articles
outlining the installation of a WiFi bubble over a small geographic
region. The second article will outline how to install wireless IP
security cameras (indoor and outdoor). The last article will outline how
to install an email server (such as Microsoft Exchange) on this system
to allow your group to have email without the Internet (or Prism).
Most people are familiar with a WiFi
hotspot or wireless network in their home. The range of these
installations is not large so your neighbor across the street will not
be able to access your computers.
However, there are applications where a
larger WiFi bubble or a connection between two wireless bubbles will
provide communications and security at a reasonable price. The system
outlined in this article has been tested at a distance of three miles.
It is rated at 17 miles depending on the topography.
Step 1:
You will need to purchase two (one at each point) Ubiquiti Nanobridge NB-5G25 Outdoor MIMO 5GHz 25DBI.
You will need at least one laptop with an Ethernet port to set up the initial bridge installation as outlined in this video:
