This video showed up on my feed and it was like a blast from the past. Just a little over 20 years ago I worked for a small startup company that provided wireless internet in upstate NY. At first, we were using BreezeCom panel antennas, and then we switched to using a parabolic grid antenna. We provided a whopping 3 mbps. In those days, everyone was on dial-up or DSL. The equipment was similar to the technology I field tested when I was serving in the Army Signal Corp in the 80s. As soon as I saw the picture of the distance and the RJ45 connector, I knew right away how the problem could be solved. Awesome video.

Isn't that a cabin, not a permanent residence? - Anyways, people want different things out of their cabins, vacation homes etc. My family has owned 2 different cabins. The one we have now is 40 min drive from home, has running water, regular sewage hookup, grid electricity, and a 100 meter walk from end of road (not lake-/seaside). 4G reception is spotty but there. And to be honest - it gets _a heck_ of a lot more use than the former cabin. Probably spend 15+ weekends a year at the cabin now, compared to 2-4 before (depending on whether it was completely buried under snow in winter, or if access could be dug in a few hours). Maintenance is way better and repairs taken care of quickly, with this ease of access. So yes, it's more like a vacation home in amendities, even though it's smack in the middle of hiking, fishing, hunting woodland country. But we get _so_ much more enjoyment out of it, because it's so much more accessible in every way. Even granny with her walker can enjoy this one. Although there's nostalgia thinking of the old family cabin, reality is that the rough accessibility meant she hadn't been able to physically get there in 15+ years. Here, she rarely even needs a hand now that we've firmed up the 100 meter path through the woods from the road to the cabin.

I get if you are already using Ubiquiti products but if you are just trying to cheaply get a remote building up EnGenius makes a Wireless bridge and the Pair costs about $200. My boss has connected up a ski resort with these for years. Stuck a bunch of antennas on the top of a mountain and could hit one from anywhere on the property. I have used them on a Golf Resort to get up remote or temporary structures. Like I said if you are already using Ubiquiti makes sense to stick with the product line but we have never had issues with these cheaper options.

Strong wing is actually liable to knock the dish out of alignment, a little bit of wobble and it goes down, and that wooden building is liable to wobble quite alot in strong wind (greater than 17mph, 15 knots, so not uncommon especially near large bodies of water). Also as this goes over a lake (public land), you could just have an AH neighbour park their sailboat in the way and it would be legal.

@@catchnkill The wireless links are a bit better than the satellite dishes. In such scenario you can actually have the wireless dish on a place, where rain would not pour on it. Satellite dishes thou are usually on the roof and you don't need a typhoon for it to lose signal. Also regular satellite internet has HUGE response time, it's 750ms each direction, making it 1.5s for the signal to go up and down. This combined with a site's delay makes it a gigantic pain in the a$$... It's not unusual to wait 4-5 seconds per page. Many customers with holiday homes switched immediately to a wireless bridge when there was an option, because it was impossible to work (stock market as example). 1ms vs 1500ms+.... Also the satellite links that I had available were 23 mbps, where with the wireless bridge you can send a gigabit of it's available on the other end. Starlink satellite internet should have only 30ms delay because of the lower orbit, but it's still under 50 mbit. Basically if there's an option to send a vdsl or cable through a wireless bridge it will always be a better option than a satellite internet.

I used to work for a wireless ISP, the most impressive shot that I made was a house in the woods surrounded by huge trees over 10 miles from the tower with hills and a dense forest in between. I could not see the tower, I expected it to be a no-go, but I set up the test dish by eying it from a gps map and got a rock solid 100mbps connection, basically as good as it was possible to get with our equipment. Although wireless tech can be really impressive sometimes, there are also plenty of times when it would take me hours to dial in a connection. Sometimes just moving 3 feet down the roof to a basically identical position would make all of the difference. One time I tried to do an install at a house about a mile from the tower with clear line of site, I could see most of the tower, but no connection, it would barely even detect the tower at all. I never understood what was wrong there, usually if you can see the tower it is a guaranteed connection. Wireless can just be crazy sometimes.
