You can buy lightning surge protectors that you have to put at both ends if you run copper but evidently they are kind of spotty in performance also. Evidently, copper networks ran underground are much more susceptible to lightening than regular home wiring running between circuit panels and then onto your equipment. This is especially true when in lightning country like where I am at south of Houston, TX. This would be a direct shot between the one outside the house and the steel building window.Īs far as why I plan to do fiber.I have been researching this for over two years (obviously not continuously) and, although there are certainly arguments to be found, many "expert" sites and/or people recommend to not run copper underground between two buildings for data purposes. I could possibly put another Eero (guess it would be a beacon) next to the window (either inside, outsider or both) on the side of the building. I was hoping that having a Eero on the backside of my house (would also help with the pool wi-fi controller) that I could then get a decent signal inside the building. When I close the steel door.no more signal. Right now when I am inside the closest building, I can get a decent signal for streaming Spotify, messaging, etc. Yes.steel buildings are definitely a problem.
Cat7 and 8 will maintain gig speed or more over even greater distance.Īny chance you can run Cat6 from your main Eero down to the Eero(s) at the steel buildings? A wired backhaul would make a huge difference. I am curious as to your choice of fiber? You could run Cat6 upto 100ft and still maintain Gig speed. At very least consider placing an Eero just outside the door of your buildings so you get a good outside capture of the signal between eeros and some chance of unobstructed, or less obstructed, signal through the doorway to the inside. You may need to make a choice on whether you want good signal and band width inside or outside your buildings. In your case your steel buildings are going to be a problem with signal bounce and reflection regardless of the mesh system. To be honest, though, I'd probably happy with one of the other mesh systems as well, but I'm invested in Eero and have been really happy with it for several years now. My short answer would be 'yes' I would choose Eero again.
RING SYSTEM EERO ROUTER INSIDE ITS PRO
This has worked so well for me that I will be installing another similar outdoor Eero - but with an Eero Pro and a slightly different junction box. There is of course some bandwidth degradation. I get about 90gbps throughput, which is still plenty to support Zoom sessions, phone calls, file transfers and other work. Network stability at the outdoor access point has been rock solid. Except for one wall between the inside Eero and the outdoor Eero, it is unobstructed line-of-sight. Interior of box was pristine - no dust, no water, perfect. Again, this is about 300' from the next nearest Eero, which is inside my house. First time opening it since I mounted it. I have had no reason at all to open the box again, though I chose to open the box again out of curiosity about a week ago.
RING SYSTEM EERO ROUTER INSIDE ITS FULL
It has gone through 4 full seasons now and has performed quite well.
I had access to power, but wired net is not an option. The location is fully exposed to the elements next to a horse barn - wind, rain, lots of dust and temp swings.
I wanted to extend my network to a location outside maybe 300' from the next closest Eero in my house.
