I wanted to network a shed office to the house over approx. 50 meters, and didn't feel like digging a trench and laying a cable, so I decided to set up a wireless link. After some research I decided to try the TP-Link CPE220, since it was cheaper that the competition by quite a margin. At first I bough one of the devices and set it up as a wireless client connecting to the house WiFi network, which worked reliably, but had poor speeds. I then bought a second CPE220 and configure the units into a dedicated wireless bridge, this resulted in solid 300mps speeds over the distance and a very reliable connection. As seen in the photos these are designed to mount to a pole or mast, as I was using them indoors I fabricated some simple mounting brackets/stands. Other thoughts: These units are well made, while I am using these indoors, I would not hesitate to set them up outdoors. Configuration is fairly straight forward, however I would recommend some knowledge of computer networking, as some of the setup can be a bit technical. Read full review

A pair of CPE220s is a great way to extend your network, whether a few hundred meters or a few kilometers. It is well constructed and quite easy to configure. The enclosure is reasonably waterproof from above (i.e., rain) but will not tolerate water spray from below. Applying some marine sealant, such as Sikaflex, is a good precaution in very wet environments.
