Orbi RBK23, Can this system reach my barn?

Question

My barn is about 200ft from my house. I would like to put a wireless camera in the barn to keep an eye on my horses. Is it possible to purchase additional satellites. To add to my current system, to reach my barn. There is no obstution in the path.

I would instead suggest a Wireless Bridge for a long span like that. Search for "wifi outdoor bridge" on Amazon or other retailers.

If you already have a Satellite, you could temporarily move it to the barn to see if it can still sync its backhaul with your router, but I doubt it would be very strong.

That would be too far.&nbsp;Any chance of burying a LAN cable from the main house and running it out to the barn? I presume there is power there. You could set up an RBS as a wired AP if you could get a LAN cable out there.&nbsp;

Thanks for the suggestion. But the cable installation is a bit pricey for me. That is why I am looking for a wireless solution.
