Ubiquiti BULLET-M2-HP Outdoor 802.11 B/G/N M2HP

Attached to a 1M long 12dB gain omni antenna and mounted at high point on my 9 acres near my starlink, now have wifi coverage on all of it. Does NOT include POE adapter, be careful to get one with correct ratings & voltage - check documentation on ubiquiti for part number. Also for boutdoor, get ubiquiti surge protector and ground it.I have no opinion about capacity but works well for a few security & game cameras and wifi calling. Receiver sensitivity is great, coverage area good for me with the big antenna.

I currently am using two of these and 15db 30 degree directional antennas from radiolabs to blast a signal a quarter mile. the path is littered with foliage and attempts at using consumer grade equipment at twice the cost were not working out. With the Bullet you can use built in spectrum analysis to see exactly what channel is clearest. When using other AirOS devices together you can take advantage of non standard bandwidths (5 10 20 40mhz), and even straddle between standard wifi channels for extra security. Proprietary "AirMax" technology works as advertised, and i get a very stable 120mbps connection. I highly recommend reading through the AirOS user guide available from ubiquiti's website to help ensure you take advantage of all this gizmo has to offer.Pro's - No other wifi access point in this price range comes close to the functionality of the bullet (with the exception of other Ubiquiti devices). Well suited to long range links.Cons - Requires intermediate networking experience to properly configure and utilize all built in features. Customer support is limited to the documentation and forum.Update - So far 4 months of unprotected outdoor use and no problems. I did take the added step of using a dab of caulk around the provided sealing ring for extra protection when i installed these. Perhaps that extra step may help other avoid premature failure.

This is good to use with a WLAN antenna like a 24dbi one (about a meter in length), Though I prefer a Ubiquiti Nanostation 2.4, directional radio of similar design. (yes called a radio but really an antenna) with which one one a hill, can pickup WIFI aimed down at a car dealership supporting 360P video at 3000ft. My figures reflect strong internet to entertain a amaltzy van dweller. Thought typically Lowes broadcasts wifi at upto 2000ft, Walmart Supercenter (non-super centers are stingy so about 100 ft past parking lot perimeter) to 1350ft. Dunkin Donuts is also very strong. Being landless, I ones parked at a library only to have the custodian nose around what my setup was. So vacated their lot and was cable to reach their WiFi over a busey street, not line of sight, thru trees, a building, some 850ft away. They never knew what hit'em.. lol thick foliated woods your range will be about 300ft (to 500ft in the winter) The nice thing with use using a LAN POE cable is that you can lay a well concealed cable over the forest floor and increase your range 328 ft (or onger with an range extender adapter) so in theory your could run the cable over 650ft over public or private land to reach your Line of Sight target.

I use these on my boat as a WiFi station to access shore-based Wifi. It has great range and speed. Be sure to pair it with a good antenna. I use a XRDS-RF omni-directional antenna.Despite not being intended for a marine environment, they last 3-5 years. At the price, I'm satisfied.Complicated to set up. You will need some networking experience.

What can you say Ubiquiti makes the best wifi gear hands down. These last twice as long as ANY Cisco product I've used. The software is awesome and works with Linux, Mac , and Windows. You can also use the web interface if you don't want or need to use the site management software. I have used these pint to point with 24 dbi Hyperlink Antennas for links over a mile. Just keep in mind Ubiquiti DOES NOT USE STANDARD POE!!! Please Ubiquiti fire the guy that came up with that really really dumb idea!

There is a WiFi hotspot I am connecting to 100-200 yards away from my room. I am able to connect to it with my iPhone or laptop if I sit at a specific spot on my terrace, and I get about 5 Mbps using a speed test. All I want is to amplify this signal and feed it into a router, so I can connect a few devices from anywhere in my room. I got a 12 dB antenna and attached a Bullet device to it hoping that it would work better with a directional antenna and a specialized device like Bullet. I was able to get it to work, but it turns out to be more trouble than benefit.Looking at the airOS Main menu I get like -61 dBm signal strength from that hotspot (full bar) and at times getting up to 15 Mbps speed, but it is pretty unstable. I may be able to see a full bar in the menu and on the LEDs of the device itself, but there may be no Internet connection. When I struggle with no connection, I just go ahead and sit near the antenna with an iPhone or laptop and can connect to that remote hot spot and do what I needed, while the Bullet-provided connection still has no Internet. Not sure why it is connected, but not passing the Internet traffic through.I noticed that the firmware 6.3.2 is the most stable and gives me the best results and speed. Loading the latest 6.3.6, for example, gives me less than 1 Mbps right away. I checked by loading different FW versions, and 6.3.2 seems to be working best. This clearly tells me that the firmware is at least a part of the problem.Maybe there are some configuration tweaks to do on this device that I do not fully understand, that would give a better Internet connection speed/stability, but I do not see it possible to figure out. It seems to me that if I could setup a dedicated laptop or phone to connect to that hotspot and create another local hot spot, I would get a much better system than with the Bullet. As is, I am still looking for alternatives...
