Still puzzling over how to get ethernet the last 3000 feet. I have fiber to a point along a rural road. The end is about 2000 feet from one home and 3000 feet from another.
Was looking at using the existing copper with VDSL line extenders. That was what that week of math problems was all about. I am starting to lean away from that solution because it is old copper. I really want to stop using it. I don’t have a ROW that is legal. The old copper technically is in trespass and the owner of the property is known to be a major PITA. So not sure if I can get permission. Even then, we are talking about 5000 feet of fiber to place. There will be some money involved. Using wireless could be much cheaper. Will have to do a solar install with the ONT and RF gear on a stub pole at the handhole. Not sure what kid of RF. Don’t want to use an AP because I need two layer 2 connections from the ONT. Be more expensive to use an AP anyhow. So two PTP systems. Rock solid, never fail type of system. Noise floor down there is probably pretty low. I could use a pair of rockets etc. Not wanting to lo-ball this, want it to be very solid. What would you use?
