kudos:70 | Coax vs. Cat5e- distance I believe you can go greater distances with COAX than cat5e can't you? it's just the bandwidth isn't quite as high. |

1 edit | sure you can but is your home so big you need more then 1 run that is 100m long?
and if your home is that big im sure you have the money to buy a repeater or 2 |

kudos:70 | No but my unkle's property is a prime example. I am sure it's more than 328ft from his house (2 story) to his farm shed (metal) where the combine and 8 wheel tractor sits.
I will have to get a pic next time I am down there in a few weeks. |

1 edit | Well there's a wireless AP in the shed, me and the unkle placed it last year.
Even at 2 miles away he gets about 11mbps to the laptop in the combine, I don't think he can complain too much.
He is fixing to run electric down the road and see if he can put a repeater and another wireless access point at the east end of the property but he's monitoring it now because of flood conditions.
I tried this POS at my house and I just returned it to wal-mart. The sucker was more out of sync than in sync.
