Upgrading to Orbi concrete bldg.
Hi,
Has anybody had experiece setting up an orbi wifi system on a concerte bldg. My family has a 5 floors concrete residential bldg. i am planning upgrade the wifi system there, the ceiling hei...
Any chance of placing wired APs at each location? Concrete is going to play major havoc on Orbi and wifi MESH. You can use the system with the satellites connected via ethernet LAN cable if you have the abililty to do that.
5Ghz doesn't work well with concrete.
the wired AP was my old setup lol.. the thing is our bldg doesnt have provision to run wires within floors, so it ended up having thos cat 5 cables haging outside the floor patios hehehe.. but anyway thanks for your input, ill check the models of your setup.
Thanks a bunch.
Ya, LAN cable would be best if you can run them with out problems.
Good Luck.
