hi there, planning to use WBS 510 for my PTMP setup with 30 clients and CPE 510 as thier receiver, what Omni antenna would you recommend for WBS 510 that can serve within 500M radius client?
Excuse my English, I do not know much. I liked your video and some questions came up. The first, can you connect several CPE clients to a single AP? Second, one establishes until which range the signal is established? Third, can it be implemented to access the PCs that the client shares?
The Answer is yes, you can connect multiple clients with an ap. Yes you can access the PC's of client side from ap side if DHCP server on both pharos devices is turned off and dynamic IP's are being allocated by one device. Please let me inform if you want to know further.
I just bought the device dec and there is no Poe ethernet cable to connect between the Poe adapter and the device from the inside of the box. Do I have a color sequence of this cable, if I do it myself, I have knowledge of the cable ethernet.
There is no such thing as POE Ethernet cable. Its just a regular Ethernet cable that power is transmitted down as well. The Ethernet Port does have to be POE capable though. With this device if there is no Ethernet cable any one you have available will work. I recommend Cat5e and up though for gigabit connection capablities
Hi, I'm trying to extend the wifi coverage for a hotel on a budget and I'm wondering if this setup will work: Internet----->Router------>CPE-510---------------->CPE510------>Router------>Access point Router: TL-R480T+ Access point: EAP-220 The hotel has two buildings that is difficult to reach with just ethernet cables hence the CPE. I'm also wondering if you still need a router after the client side CPE or will a switch suffice? Note: More access points and switches will be added to each router once I get it working.
Juan, did you need a second router? Wouldn't the client side CPE plug into a POE switch, and you can plug the EAP-220 into another port of the POE switch? At least that's how I hope it works.
One thing you can consider is to use the CPE of the 2nd building in its "AP Client Router" mode so you can have a wifi network there. The "Bridge" or "Extender" modes will also do the same job but in the same network.
Height limits would be the limits of the ethernet you are using the only requirement is that the two units have clear line of sight and are in range of each other. On the Client side you can connect an AP or router to allow multiple clients to connect. On the AP side it would be a one to one connection with the router.
Yes that should not be a problem. even on the CPE210 the max range is 5km which is about 3.14 miles. You will need two units though. One at the source and in AP mode and the other at the remote location in Client mode. You will need clear line of sight as these models are all directional based antennas.
Hey nice video!. Just 1 doubt. Do I need to add the "security option" by adding a password right? (created on the AP ). Otherwise anyone with a CPE device would be able to get signal from the AP. Is this correct?
That would be accurate for any open network. You would want to secure your network always. With the CPE however a client would need to have line of sight and be within the beamwidth of the CPE to be able to communicate with it.
Hi TP-Link. Thank you for this demonstration, i have a question please. Can i use this Wireless CPE to access my data remotely using cifs and NFS ?

HI Can I use this product to extend my home internet to my business internet cafe? i have 50mbps connection at the moment, but i can upgrade my plan if necessary when i use this...
For CPE systems that is very difficult to do. It's not like an Omnidirectional low-power system that is easily influenced but other systems in the area. These systems are high power and very line of sight. The main interference factor is if something obscures the line of sight of the system.

+Shaheen Naryabi What's your detailed topology and problem? Do you mean the CPE lose connection with another CPE or your client devices lose connection with CPE? Please check whether there are any barriers between AP and Client, besides, you can use 'spectrum analyse' under wireless menu and select a cleaner channel to avoid interference. At last, what's the distance between AP and client? Remember to set a distance under wireless menu.

what is the allowed distance between the TPlink CPE and the PoE adapter? is there also a limit on the distance between router port and the PoE adapter? or are this the normal 100 meter limits of ethernet?
@@TPLINKTECH thanks but a follow up question arrise then, is the ethernet segment from the router, over the PoE adapter to the device or are these 2 segments (1 segment from router to PoE adapter and 2nd segment from PoE to device. The reason for this question is that I would need to travers first an area without line of sight and then the radio part which has line of sight. The first past is most probable just over 100 meters
@@a320homecockpit You shouldn't have a problem with that as long as the injector is at a location where power can be added. the 2nd segment, ethernet to camera would then have the POE power added to it.

Hello If I use the Access Point TP-LINK TL-WA801ND_V1 Wireless N300 and use a 2400 WiFi parabolic dish instead of the Omni Directional Antenna, how far can I get the frequency 100% without loss of quality ? ? ? For outdoor long range point to point use.
Can't answer that because that is outside of the products intended use. the WA801ND is an indoor AP not an outdoor one. also the antenna are bound to each other so all antenna have to be the same.
In Client mode think of the CPE as a modem. You would need to connect it to a Router or AP in the Client location to provide that area with the service it receives.
It should be but we don't have that product in the US so we can't say yes absolutely. Here is the data sheet though. static.tp-link.com/2020/202003/20200324/CPE%20series-Datasheet.pdf
Can I set this up with 3 CPE210 devices. One AP mode, and the other 2 in client mode both set up identical (different device IPs)? They will both be within cone of the AP.
Yes as long at the 2 clients are in line of sight and the beamwidth of the AP. The two clients would then operate like an network adapter on a computer and get an individual IP address. the clients then can each be setup to a separate WAP and provide wireless and wired connect to device in their area.
Can i use the cpe510 in AP Client Router (WISP Client) mode and connect it to an archer a10 in (Router Mode)? I then want to connect an (AP) or wireless router to the cpe510 so I have an omnidirectional antenna for all my devices at the second location.
The two devices would need to be in line of sight and the beamwidth for that to work. The CPE510 has a very narrow beamwidth. However the EAP225-Outdoor may be a better product for your needs. Its an outdoor Omni-directional AP with a maximum range of 150 Meters.
Hello I had a question, please help If i use the Access Point TP-LINK TL-WA801ND_V1 Wireless N300 And use an outdoor parabolic dish instead of access point antennas, to send the Wifi 2400 MHz frequency, how far can I receive the frequency 100% without loss of quality ???
Its simple that would connect to a client device. A PC, an AP, a router, etc. Most would use an AP or router so that multiple clients at the client side can access
Have difficulties connecting the client to the AP: 1. Do I have to disconnect the LAN cable between PC and AP, to client PC at any time in the configuration process? 2. The SSID network-name. Is that a specific new name for the AP-Client connection, or to the network of the house? 3. At what time may I LAN-connect the AP to the router of the house instead of the PC? How do I do that? 4. What option do I have, if my PC does not have a traditional LAN-socket in the configuration process?
Hello Gentlemen, I have a question about TP-Link CPE Point to Point can I use it for one side only as sender without reciver ? I mean I have a router and I want to make the signal stronger, the receiver will be the computers and mobiles. could you help me with that? thank you
I'm no expert but basically yes. You can select Range Extender, Access Point, or Bridge based on your needs and connect devices compatible with 5ghz wifi (like most phones and computers.) Keep in mind that this is a very directional signal, it's not going to be well suited for "moving targets." You can connect a cellphone to the wireless signal, but you would be better off with something omni directional.
I'm not finding any explanations of the different modes that I find clear. I want to have one in my main building that is used only to communicate with the second, and the second in my outbuilding and running a wireless access point. Can you point me toward documentation that can explain that? The mode descriptions don't seem to be looking at things from the angle I am.
Unit at the main set in AP mode. Remote unit set in Client mode. units must have clear line of sight and be within each other's beam width. If the distance is 150 meters or less consider using a EAP225-Outdoor. you would only need one then.
You can but its not nessasry as long as DHCP is enabled on the AP side where the service and router exist. If that router however requires static IPs to be set up then yes you would.

To do the point to point it is necessary that the access point are the same, or can do it of TPLINK WA52105 to TL-TL-WA7210N.
Thanks You!
nobody knows?
Hello , i have a couple questions .
1. Can i use only lan connection from router to AP and configure it from smartphone browser ?
2. Would i have 90%+ internet speed with clear line of sight on 100 meters (150Mbps is speed out of the router) ?
1. Yes you can
2. It depends on multiple factors. Its possible but we can't guarantee speeds
hi there, planning to use WBS 510 for my PTMP setup with 30 clients and CPE 510 as thier receiver, what Omni antenna would you recommend for WBS 510 that can serve within 500M radius client?
I couldn't tell you here. Email support.smb@tp-link.com and they can answer your question properly.
Hello brother I have a totolink cp900 15km And this tp-link cpe-520 each other will find the wi-fi signal can be connected
How do you set up TP-Link CPE to be used as an access point without a computer? Can it be configured via a router and a smartphone at your disposal?
No it will require a device to be physically connected to it.
Excuse my English, I do not know much.
I liked your video and some questions came up.
The first, can you connect several CPE clients to a single AP?
Second, one establishes until which range the signal is established?
Third, can it be implemented to access the PCs that the client shares?
The Answer is yes, you can connect multiple clients with an ap. Yes you can access the PC's of client side from ap side if DHCP server on both pharos devices is turned off and dynamic IP's are being allocated by one device. Please let me inform if you want to know further.
@@mohsanadreesadv. Can we connect a switch to client cpe... For connecting routers to switch
I just bought the device dec and there is no Poe ethernet cable to connect between the Poe adapter and the device from the inside of the box. Do I have a color sequence of this cable, if I do it myself, I have knowledge of the cable ethernet.
There is no such thing as POE Ethernet cable. Its just a regular Ethernet cable that power is transmitted down as well. The Ethernet Port does have to be POE capable though. With this device if there is no Ethernet cable any one you have available will work. I recommend Cat5e and up though for gigabit connection capablities
very best tutorial.... thanks for this
Hi, I'm trying to extend the wifi coverage for a hotel on a budget and I'm wondering if this setup will work: Internet----->Router------>CPE-510---------------->CPE510------>Router------>Access point
Router: TL-R480T+
Access point: EAP-220
The hotel has two buildings that is difficult to reach with just ethernet cables hence the CPE. I'm also wondering if you still need a router after the client side CPE or will a switch suffice?
Note: More access points and switches will be added to each router once I get it working.
yes
Juan, did you need a second router? Wouldn't the client side CPE plug into a POE switch, and you can plug the EAP-220 into another port of the POE switch? At least that's how I hope it works.
This will work.
THANKS!
One thing you can consider is to use the CPE of the 2nd building in its "AP Client Router" mode so you can have a wifi network there. The "Bridge" or "Extender" modes will also do the same job but in the same network.
What could be the best height to fix the AP and CPE devices? Can we connect more than 2 client devices to the AP device?
Height limits would be the limits of the ethernet you are using the only requirement is that the two units have clear line of sight and are in range of each other. On the Client side you can connect an AP or router to allow multiple clients to connect. On the AP side it would be a one to one connection with the router.
Can I used this device to connect to a wifi network that is 1/2 mile away. Trying to cut down on my expenses. Thanks
Yes that should not be a problem. even on the CPE210 the max range is 5km which is about 3.14 miles. You will need two units though. One at the source and in AP mode and the other at the remote location in Client mode. You will need clear line of sight as these models are all directional based antennas.
Hey nice video!. Just 1 doubt. Do I need to add the "security option" by adding a password right? (created on the AP ). Otherwise anyone with a CPE device would be able to get signal from the AP. Is this correct?
That would be accurate for any open network. You would want to secure your network always. With the CPE however a client would need to have line of sight and be within the beamwidth of the CPE to be able to communicate with it.
Hi TP-Link. Thank you for this demonstration, i have a question please. Can i use this Wireless CPE to access my data remotely using cifs and NFS ? Logically the answer seemed o be yes once i have the ability to share the INTERNET and video surveillance.

If between two houses we have a big house can connection get through?
not likely. CPEs need a direction and clear line of sight with each other to properly work.

Hi, is this compatible to other brand(as a client)?
I am not sure. You can reach out to our business support to find out. Support.SMB@tp-link.com
Bro plz make a video on spectrum analysis how to check and connect best frequency channel with less intereferance
For CPE systems that is very difficult to do. It's not like an Omnidirectional low-power system that is easily influenced but other systems in the area. These systems are high power and very line of sight. The main interference factor is if something obscures the line of sight of the system.
i have an open wifi near my house but icant fix the other pair of CPE on the building from which iam getting open wifi i tried a lot of tricks but the signal till my house is very weak can i fix one pair of CPE and connect it to my wifi router
can the "client" CPE210 connect to the distant LAN network through RJ45 jack and make 2 different networks one as if they are physically connected?
Client will not create a network. instead you would be able to physically connect a ethernet based AP or router.
I have installed two CPE510 units they connect fine and i have good signal strength. If i send data over the link it works fine but if there is a period of inactivity the link seems to stop working and i have to reboot one of the CPE's. After doing this the link works again until the next period of inactivity. Every morning I need to reboot. Do the units have some sort of sleep mode. Please help.
Honestly not sure on that one. You can email our business support at support.smb@tp-link.com and they will be able to tell you.
That's happening when the (DFS) Dynamic Frequency Selection, on 5 GHz, is active. DFS is prioritizing military radar, satellite communication, and weather radar.
That means that your link will disconnect between 1-10 minutes if it will find a military radar, satellite communication, and weather radar use in you neighboorhood.
The sellers of 5 GHz links, as TP-Link, are talking quietly about this. I had to learn it the hard way.
How far of a distance would the point to point wifi work? Can the AP and client be 15 km apart?
Depends on the model. You can go to TP-Link.com and look at what is available in your region. You can see the range available in the overview page or in the Datasheet.
Any reason why I can't use just one of these to connect to an existing wifi network? Want to extend my neighbors starlink to mine
Because they are Line of sight directional. The source and clients all would need to be within the azimuth of the CPE, which is very narrow.
How to align your antenna properly? It seems not like the way you show in this video.
Thank you for sharing great video with perfect explanation. ...

any solution ???
+Shaheen Naryabi What's your detailed topology and problem? Do you mean the CPE lose connection with another CPE or your client devices lose connection with CPE?
Please check whether there are any barriers between AP and Client, besides, you can use 'spectrum analyse' under wireless menu and select a cleaner channel to avoid interference. At last, what's the distance between AP and client? Remember to set a distance under wireless menu.

what is the allowed distance between the TPlink CPE and the PoE adapter? is there also a limit on the distance between router port and the PoE adapter?
or are this the normal 100 meter limits of ethernet?
As far as we know the limits are that of the Ethernet segment.
@@TPLINKTECH thanks but a follow up question arrise then, is the ethernet segment from the router, over the PoE adapter to the device or are these 2 segments (1 segment from router to PoE adapter and 2nd segment from PoE to device. The reason for this question is that I would need to travers first an area without line of sight and then the radio part which has line of sight. The first past is most probable just over 100 meters
@@a320homecockpit You shouldn't have a problem with that as long as the injector is at a location where power can be added. the 2nd segment, ethernet to camera would then have the POE power added to it.

Hello
If I use the Access Point TP-LINK TL-WA801ND_V1 Wireless N300 and use a 2400 WiFi parabolic dish instead of the Omni Directional Antenna, how far can I get the frequency 100% without loss of quality ? ? ?
For outdoor long range point to point use.
Can't answer that because that is outside of the products intended use. the WA801ND is an indoor AP not an outdoor one. also the antenna are bound to each other so all antenna have to be the same.
Hi, after setting up client device, is it still need LAN cable connect in client device?
In Client mode think of the CPE as a modem. You would need to connect it to a Router or AP in the Client location to provide that area with the service it receives.
Question: Does CPE 220 is capable of point to multipoint connection? Thank you
It should be but we don't have that product in the US so we can't say yes absolutely. Here is the data sheet though. static.tp-link.com/2020/202003/20200324/CPE%20series-Datasheet.pdf
Can I set this up with 3 CPE210 devices. One AP mode, and the other 2 in client mode both set up identical (different device IPs)? They will both be within cone of the AP.
Yes as long at the 2 clients are in line of sight and the beamwidth of the AP. The two clients would then operate like an network adapter on a computer and get an individual IP address. the clients then can each be setup to a separate WAP and provide wireless and wired connect to device in their area.
Can i use the cpe510 in AP Client Router (WISP Client) mode and connect it to an archer a10 in (Router Mode)?
I then want to connect an (AP) or wireless router to the cpe510 so I have an omnidirectional antenna for all my devices at the second location.
The two devices would need to be in line of sight and the beamwidth for that to work. The CPE510 has a very narrow beamwidth. However the EAP225-Outdoor may be a better product for your needs. Its an outdoor Omni-directional AP with a maximum range of 150 Meters.
Could you please inform me of the maximum number of client access points that can be connected to a single access point CPE?
I don't have that information but if you reach out to support.smb@tp-link.com they should be able to assist you.

You can't with these products. The CPE products are directional.
where does the line on the client connected to? Please show where the lines goes on the client side. Thanks
Its simple that would connect to a client device. A PC, an AP, a router, etc. Most would use an AP or router so that multiple clients at the client side can access
Have difficulties connecting the client to the AP:
1. Do I have to disconnect the LAN cable between PC and AP, to client PC at any time in the configuration process?
2. The SSID network-name. Is that a specific new name for the AP-Client connection, or to the network of the house?
3. At what time may I LAN-connect the AP to the router of the house instead of the PC? How do I do that?
4. What option do I have, if my PC does not have a traditional LAN-socket in the configuration process?

Hello Gentlemen,
I have a question about TP-Link CPE Point to Point
can I use it for one side only as sender without reciver ? I mean I have a router and I want to make the signal stronger, the receiver will be the computers and mobiles.
could you help me with that?
thank you
I'm no expert but basically yes. You can select Range Extender, Access Point, or Bridge based on your needs and connect devices compatible with 5ghz wifi (like most phones and computers.)
Keep in mind that this is a very directional signal, it's not going to be well suited for "moving targets." You can connect a cellphone to the wireless signal, but you would be better off with something omni directional.
I'm not finding any explanations of the different modes that I find clear. I want to have one in my main building that is used only to communicate with the second, and the second in my outbuilding and running a wireless access point. Can you point me toward documentation that can explain that? The mode descriptions don't seem to be looking at things from the angle I am.
Unit at the main set in AP mode. Remote unit set in Client mode. units must have clear line of sight and be within each other's beam width. If the distance is 150 meters or less consider using a EAP225-Outdoor. you would only need one then.
For WISP setup, which APs are recommended, and can it work with third party APs as well. If we use WBS510 as Main AP and connect with WISP mode CPEs?
Depends on your needs. CPE510 is 5GHz and CPE210 is 2.4GHz for Questions regarding specific deployments though we suggest contacting our support team.
@Nikos papadopoylos Depends on your region. www.tp-link.com/us/choose-your-location/ select your region then support then contact technical support
When I connect a device to the client device do I need to configure it for a static IP in the client menu of I wish?
You can but its not nessasry as long as DHCP is enabled on the AP side where the service and router exist. If that router however requires static IPs to be set up then yes you would.
