I only did some basic testing. I did not deploy this.I set up these two units about 500 to 600 feet apart with a direct line of sight. I then connected one of them to a router and the other one to a network switch, to which I connected my laptop.Then I ran multiple speedtest tests.I do not have a 1gig service so I cannot say if it would do that. It did however do over 300Mbts, which is what my service provides.My plan is to use these for security cameras which are about 300 feet from out office. There will be up to 8 security cameras connected to a network switch, which will be connected to one of these units.

We use these to bridge between our livestream cameras and our tech computer about 70ft away. That distance is nothing for this bridge but is too far for WiFi, especially with the high bandwidth needs of NDI (low latency lossless video) and interference from a few hundred phones. We even use it to connect a unify AP back to the router to expand the wifi coverage.I was worried that this would be too finicky to setup each week (we are a mobile church) but it's very forgiving. I've read that each end has about a 60 degree antenna which matches my experience. Just point them in the general direction of each other and you get a full speed connection. One end sits on the floor but it doesn't seem to have an issue with people walking by or anything. The only time I've seen it have connection issues was when we happen to put a speaker directly between the 2 devices. Moved one end over a foot and it connected fine.

Way cheaper than running a wire to the out building. Not super intuitive to setup, but they work great. Documentation is somewhat dismal, so you’ll need to know what you are doing or have a geek friend set them up for you.

This thing works pretty well for my needs: throwing gigabit internet 30 feet across my yard to a shed. Worked through one of my windows, not the other. Beware if you cannot install outside, 60ghz will have a lot of trouble penetrating certain windows. Might consider a narrower band if you need to penetrate any surfaces.My setup is: ISP modem --> Google Nest router (with PoE adapter) --> Master unit --> Slave unit --> Google Nest router (with PoE adapter) --> computer.I'm pulling 850-900mbps on the computer and 650mbps on my wifi devices in the shed off an advertised 1gbps fiber connection. Pretty awesome technology. Install was easy once I wrapped my mind around it (I have no clue about networking). As for the devices themselves the setup was plug-and-play in my experience. No additional tweaking necessary once everything was plugged in and the devices were pointed at each other.

Surprisingly simple to set up, and they work perfectly. We are using them between two houses on a large property (about 200m apart, with a few tree tops between them) ,and we get the full speed. I highly recommend them!

Diese 60 GHZ Accesspoints waren die Lösung für meine Netzwerkprobleme in einer Mietswohnung Entgegen der "Weisheit" des Internets geht es bei mir in der Wohnung durch eine Tür, damit fühlt es sich an wie Kabel ins Büro, ohne dass ich Löcher in der Wand bohren musste.Latenz zum Router unter 2ms, Datenrate >500Mbit.Falls jemand auf den Geschmack gekommen ist, die Geräte lassen sich sehr einfach zu einem Point-to-multipoint umrüsten, wenn ein wAP 60G AP dazu erworben wird. Damit hat mehr als ein Arbeitsplatz eine konstant gute Verbindung.

My cheap TP-Link ones, while slower, were far more reliable than these. I have a clear view no obstructions they are about 150' away from each other and drop out constantly. After about 25 days they just stopped communicating with each other. My TP-Link ones still work after 8 months I just wanted a faster connection because those are limited to 100mb. Returning these overpriced paperweightsUPDATE: Mikrotik does NOT stand behind their product. Their tech support is located on the other side of the globe, they respond in the middle of the night, and that's only after several days of nothing inbetween responses. They clearly try to run out your return window or warranty so you're stuck with junk.

Bought this to extend a wired network downstairs in an old house (would have to wreck some coving to wire internally, and didn't want to fall off a ladder trying to wire externally). Have the downstairs unit on a corner table and the upstairs unit on the bottom of a wardrobe (directly over the downstairs unit), facing down.Worked perfectly even in this setup. One layer of plasterboard (the roof) and two layers of wood (floorboards and wardrobe) don't seem to cause problems. YMMV but this was really unexpected, thought I'd have to roof mount one of the units downstairs so it could "see" the lower one.Getting a solid 930Mb/s according to iperf (wondering if that could be the gigabit port it's connected to limiting it, rather than the radio link). Latency is under 1ms, even with the link saturated, which is miles better than 5GHz wifi.They're also very neat looking, even if one did need to be roof mounted it would look no more intrusive than a smoke alarm. PoE adapters are a nice addition.

La conexión varía mucho. Hay días que va genial y otros que no va bien. A veces tengo que incluso reiniciarlo para que coja la señal y eso que los tengo en dos antenas y de una a la otra no habrán más de 15 metros

I pole-mounted them outside on the ground, facing each other. Setup was easy, pretty much "set it and forget it." They have been up about two days now and have been incredibly stable. I consistently get 800-980 Mbit throughput. These replaced a 5Ghz bridge that we were lucky to see 40 Mbit on a good day, and even down to single Mbit on a bad day. (Those were from another company) I highly recommend this Mikrotik bridge, it is fantastic.Update: 05-23-2019. Been using this for over a month now. Solid performance. Truly set it and forget it. Haven't needed to reboot, re-setup, or anything. Truly love it.Update 10-2019: We've had this about 7months now. It has worked perfectly, no reboots, no restarts, nothing. It has been running like a Timex and we consistently get 900+ Mbps throughput. Best purchase I ever made. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.Update 10-2022. Runs like a Timex. These have been outside in all kinds of weather, storms, rain, wind, thunderstorms, ice, snow, HEAVY rain, heatwave, and we have not had a single problem with them. I almost forget about them sometimes. I could not be more pleased with these devices.

This thing is awesome. I needed something to connect my pool house to the internet. It's a seperate unit and running cat 6 to it would have been a crazy amount of work as I would have had to break concrete. I even paid a bunch for an eero mesh because I had heard it had strong coverage.The POE makes this thing really easy to install as long as you have line of sight, I mounted them to my house with flag pole mounts from home depots, home theatre speaker mounts would probably work. Before with my eero and extender every time I tried to stream a 1080p rip it would overheat my eero and kill the stream at some point in the movie, and I couldn't stream a 4k rip without it buffering every 15s, with the wireless wire it instantly loads the 4k rip with no buffering and my speed test.net showed 900/950. It's nice cause my consoles are out there so patches and downloading games is super fast and I'm sure the connection is more stable for gaming. Also I was curious if this would add latency, it did not and speed test.net literally gave me a 1ms ping.Only thing I wish it had was some more instructions on how to adjust and make sure you have the ideal signal, and an app to help you do that would be really helpful, I have no idea if repositioning would make a stronger connection, but it's testing out at 900/950 so I can't complain.

Wir hatten das Problem, dass wir unsere Gartenlaube mit Internet versorgen wollten. Die Laube liegt auf einem anderen Grundstück in Sichtweite in ca. 80 Meter Entfernung vom Wohnhaus.Die Versuche das Wlan mit einem Repeater in der Laube zu empfangen schlug fehl. Der Repeater hatte dort keinen Empfang mehr. Auch eine alte Fritzbox, deren Antennen ich umgerüstet hatte, brachte leider kein Empfang.Da fand mein Sohn in einer Zeitschrift einen Artikel über das Wireless Wire Kit. Bei Amazon bestellt und schnell geliefert, gingen wir an die Arbeit.Vom Prinzip sind die Geräte selbsterklärend - die Geräte müssen nur an einer geeigneten Stelle befestigt werden und zueinander frontseitig ausgerichtet werden. Sichtkontakt ist notwendig. Befestigungsmöglichkeiten sind vielfältig denkbar und vorbereitet. Eine Station habe ich im Mauerwerk festgeschraubt und die Gegenseite an einem Pfahl mit Kabelbindern befestigt. Die Geräte sind für den Außenbereich wohl geeignet und recht unauffällig.Sie funktionieren dann wie ein "kabelloses Kabel". Ich habe in meiner Laube dann eigene Router angeschlossen und ein eigenes Wlan eingerichtet.Das funtioniert bei uns super. Die Übertragunsggeschwindigkeiten sind für unseren Bedarf mehr als ausreichend.Einfach eine super Lösung.
