For anyone wanting to implement this setup would recommend the following:
1)Use a password generator to generate a strong password as you are increasing your network range.
2) Wire the network cable directly into the Power injector and then a port on your router
3) If your setup permits ideally put it on a different network (vlan) to isolate it from your main home network also hide your SSID on this device if possible.
Hello. Can I ask if I need to setup this on my router too? My isp dont want/didn't provide a password/user on my router isp. All they provide is the password for the wifi on the router. So can I just plug this one and use it or do I need to set it up on my router's portal?
Hi Naresh, thanks for posting this video, I picked up one of these for an installation I was doing this week, a full rewire of comms and aerials buried in ducting around a building. So was pleased to see a British video, showing set up by phone app rather than American on a computer. Always apprehensive about the tech side of things, particularly with kit I've never fitted before. I couldn't believe how easy it was to set up this little white rabbit for my customers back garden. So simple, just a user name, a password and then 2nd step just copy the ssid and password of the modem, job done, seamless handover between house and garden. Customer happy. Thanks mate.
Cheers Naresh. I've been investigating this unit (and similar ones) for about 6 months but wasn't sure if it was going to do what I wanted so I procrastinated. I saw your video yesterday and it was more informative than the info from TP Link. So I picked my EAP-225-outdoor up this morning,! Very simple to set up (and as I wanted to use it to to extend my wifi range without having to set up another SSID I just gave it the same SSID/password and security mode as my existing network and it works great. I live in a semi-rural area and our mobile reception is practically non-existent but now with this AP and wifi calling I can actually get calls out in the paddock. Cheers mate, appreciate the effort you put into your video :) thumbs up from Australia.
that is really good to know that have same SSID networks can work what i have seen in past they usually create conflict i will checking my network again to have simper cheers
Did this keep working for the same network as your indoor network? Would rather avoid having multiple networks. Thanks.
I got this one. I had before 110 model. I can say this EAP 225 is not better than the other one at all. The bonus for this one is 5G , but you can use it 10- 15 m range ..., if you go 50, 100 m you go on 2Ghz, and the maxim I got is 55mpbs at 50 m probably and 10 Mbps at 100 m - the same speed as the 110.Conclusion: If you need the signal to reach long distances, this is not better than EAP 110 half of the price.
What about if you have gigabit speed internet, wouldn't the EAP110 model limit the max speed
You need to angle the two screw on aerials away from themselves - in a V configuration. Do not have them bolt upright, parallel to each other. Thats why there is a hinge in them
since this installation i had corrected them placed them in angle to get better signal
Thank you for the video! It answered every question I had about this product. I'll be installing one in my backyard soon.
Glad it was helpful!
@@nareshkeswani80 i think you should place it higher than the roof for longer range.. some use a metal tube to raise it..
Finally, someone who does an unboxing of the product as well!
So, it needs to be connected to a switch/router for the best Wi-Fi? I'm looking for something that works like a 'repeater'. No connection besides strengthening my indoor Wi-Fi, so that I could get internet near my workshop outdoors.
Lots of good explanation. Thank you for that. However some critical information was totally left out. Namely is how to secure the AP setup after it is installed. Secondly it would be useful if you would show more detail on the wiring connectors you used and plugging them in. What do you recommend?
I have a question: I have a shop about 600 feet from the main wifi network/router and can not run hardwire from the router all the way to the TP link. How would you recommend I go about getting a network to the shop? Will it work to put a TP link outside the house (where the wifi network/router is) and point it in the direction of the shop about 600 feet away? Or do you have some other recommendation? Although I am tech savvy, this is my first time using technology like this. I greatly appreciate your help!
U explain everything that I was looking for keep up the good work
Glad I could help
thanks for the video. About how many yards did you walk away from the house when testing the signal strength?
I’ve been standing on my roof for 2 hours trying to connect this bs to my app. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t have found Omada. Thank youuuuuuuu!!!!!
Hi, thanks for the video, very informative. Just a quick question. Do I connect to the router using the WAN port or just use one of the Ethernet ports? Thanks.
So how do I get this to work wirelessly? Does this have to be plugged into the router in ny house the whole time? I thought the point was for me to not have to do that
My question exactly!!! Did you ever find out?
Hi Naresh! Thank you for this vlog. Very detailed and very helpful. I have one question though. How is the connection speed in the home?
E.g. when sitting in the opposite end of the home from where the AP is hanging on the outside?
This is all depend where you are living in UK most of walls are three times, there is significant decline in signal strength but Internet was arround 100 mbps where as my broadband speed is 350
I've literally just installed this and was looking at how to configure the settings in the app when I saw your video. I have exactly the same set up as you and run a few Ring cameras at the bottom of the garden to protect my caravan etc. My old set up with a router in my shed was very glitchy at times but now the cameras are immediately spot on picture quality. Thank you for your video, my system is now password secure and I can relax :)
Great job on your video, sir!! Your video was a great help. Much appreciated from the US!
Glad it helped
14:25 what is a Poe injector? And powerline adapter ? Not sure what those two machines are mounted on the wall . Nice video . For some bizarre reason though your voice sounds like Aamir Sohail's lol courtesy of watching too much cricket growing up.
Thank you very much for copairing my voice with one the best cricketers from Pakistan, now peo is for the giving power over ethernet to eap225 with access point and power line adapter to provide inter in conner of my house whee I don't have wired connection I hope this answer every you want to know let me know if I could be more helpful and kindly write new message to get my attention cheers
@@nareshkeswani80 can it be used as wifi extender ? Without using rj45 cable connecting it to main router
Great Naresh, thanks... followed your vid and set it up along with you.
I just bought this and received it today. I had thought that I would not need to connect it with a Ethernet cable, but it appears the unit requires it. I was looking to extend my wifi signal from inside my house, to areas away from my house where house wifi signal strength is weak. Is it possible to get this unit to work without physically connecting it to my network via ethernet cable ? I had hoped to mount this away from my house on an outbuilding (tool shed).
I thought it was going to be wireless as well!! I don’t get what the point of buying this thing is if you have to run a wire to it from your router??
Thank you very much I have one of these coming in the mail I did have the wavlink and it did not work for me. I did not see anybody doing any kind of test like you did and I believe it went in and out so I I'm sending it back thank you so much looking forward to using this product and using your video what a great review thank you.
i bet on this you will not regret from this access point
@@nareshkeswani80 thank you I am using it for my blink cameras outside on my property.
Got the same thing for my house here in Saskatchewan canada works great all year long
thank you for sharing your experience here!
So, do you have to give it it's own SSID or can you use it as an extension of the current WiFi SSID? What I'm asking is if it has different modes? Ap, extender, bridge, etc
I have one of this, I had to make some changes to make it work properly , I was a bit disappointed with is performance , now it's a lot better, TP-Link says 200 feets in 2.4 and 300 feets in 5 ghzs , very far away from this.
I just picked up this one for my property too and works pretty well but was wondering if you had any experience with any other products that are a bit less wire/power dependent. Do you know of any wifi repeaters that are battery powered, and also don't require a cat5 back to the router as well, but can extend wifi almost like a mesh? Would be nice to be able to just extend the wifi outdoors with no wires coming back into the home... but its surprisingly hard to find a product that can do this.
I do understand you wiring concerns I have not came across any product like this some powered but only very little range
@@nareshkeswani80 I was thinking of just putting my additional google wifi satellite outside, with a weather box and a lithium powered battery to plug it in haha. maybe even a mini solar panel with it.
@@MatthewNguyen90 that found like great idea have seen some solar panel with 5 v usb vdc out and you cba charge power bank with and further power bank to Google but does you Google have input voltage of 5 vdc I think most of them are at 12 vdc
What is the power supply requirement of the PoE and Antenna? Then go from there. It is not rocket science.
Man I didnt see can you use it with one mesh? I would like to connect it to my current mesh setup and use it in the garden.
mi duda es si hay que compar necesariamente el Controlador omada o mikrotik para gestionar los usuarios y portal cautivó O con solo este equipo vas para controlar todo? Gracias por los videos..
Thank you for your video. I am not getting good signal in my outbuilding and I attached the POE behind the building which is about 10 metres from the main building. I expected to have full signal. What am doing that is wrong
from signal side, can you please check your antennas fittings again they should not be parallel to each other and there is a possiblity you have a faulty unit is that possible for asking seller for replacement ?
Good morning sir I like to ask you about how many feet given by TP- link to keep connected? 2nd question this extended is plug and play need deep set up makes working well? 3rd question is designed to connecting any router ? 4th question do you know powerful extended outdoor wifi maybe about 1km long range?
Please can you tell me the distance, height of the Omada from the ground
Great video. If I have this outside and plugged directly in to my Sky router, will I need two connections/log ins? One for the Sky and one for the TP-Link? Ideally I want to have the TP-Link just be an extension of the Sky broadband wifi.
Yes, absolutely
Great video! Very well explained, Subscribed!
Cheers
@@nareshkeswani80 Hi, just 1 question, the way it is setup at the moment, I have to join the TP Link via another password (for both 2g & 5g (which is a LOT faster)), is there a way of using the same password as my router so connecting is seamless?
@@rickhyde4183 for that you need to use controller from tp link that will handle all for you
@@nareshkeswani80 Controller??
Hi. I have a router that has not enough range. Im thinking of installing this in my garden and one in my basement. I would like to name them the same as my wifi from router and than my phone will connect to the one thats always closest. Like when you are in a shopping center. You alway is connectef with good signal when you move around. Is this possible with this AP?
try it but the one you see in shopping centre they working on centralised system, there is one controller which handle everything no worries you can actually purchase this check the same link and look for omasa controller in it
Thanks for thé vidéo.
So if i understand it correctly :
For outdoor installation with CPL...
Electric socket inside, a CPL ok it. The passive poe connected tonthe CPL (electricity) thén RJ45 from CPL to thé poe and RJ45 from poe to thé unit.
And it should work right ?
Good video, I have just purchased the ceiling mounted eap1350. I assume it'll be much the same as this to configure. I hope it's as easy. Amazing difference in the 5ghz range. Does the Poe require a specific type of cable or does any ethernet cable work?
I made my own CAT 6 cable and it worked fine have not seen such thing in anywhere about cable but would suggest to go for CAT 6 because have tried it and it worked
@@nareshkeswani80 brilliant, thanks for getting back to me. Much appreciated.
Thank you very much for sharing I came across these tp-link access point I Was thinking to go with tp-link ac2600 wifi Extender but this you shown me is a nice set thanks again
Glad I could help
@@nareshkeswani80 Thanks for replying and yes you do a good job of teaching you have the best understanding I seen on these tp-link ac1200 I was going do the extender but I like this way better and you nail it thanks again went to best buy but they have to order it GOD BLESSED
Hi Naresh I was inspired by your video and subscribed following a purchase of the eap110 outdoor version of this product, however I seem to have issues that weren't present in your video. My device shows up in wlan section but not in the stand alone section of the app. What can u suggest, any advice would be appreciated, thank you take care
Let me check
just tell me what type of cable must buy for extended is it Cat5 or Cat8?
Well if you're still listening to comments this has the ability to mesh with more than one how does that work?
Thanks for the video, just bought one and expecting it tomorrow, you said you can add the EAP unit once its connected on your network, do you have details or a video on how to do connect it to your network ? thanks
no everything you need to know is avaiable in this video
Thanks my friend. This answered a ton of my questions
Glad I could help!
I’m guessing I can use this with my own Poe switch
Hi sir you forgot to talking about control hostname/IP the reason i remind you that is because i want open a business to connecting people their cellphone rent for that so can make money using them. My question is can identify people going host spot while is illegal to do that ?😅
Very clear explanation. Thanks so much
Hi Naresh, can you recommend a wireless wifi range extender that will work outdoors? I have power outside but am unable to use an ethernet cable so am looking for something like a TP Link but one that works outdoors. Thanks in advance.
Let me check
Naresh Lal thanks
Sir, can you tell me the distance in meters from your house and the place where you stop to check the internet speed , thanks
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 ???
this is all i need
Have a TP-Link Deco Mesh system but need to improve wifi to the front and back gardens for Wi-fi cameras, video doorbell etc. Will this work and will I have one network or two (Deco+EAP110's)
i don't see why not what i have is three deco in house and one EAP 225 outside
Great video, you've helped me in making my purchase decision
Glad I could help
nice video... question: did you use category 5e cable for your poe? If not, what did you use?
no it was cat 6
Is the wifi voucher business safe for hackers? I noticed that when setting up the Omada "inside the Wireless Network" the security is set to "none" ... thx in advance for helping
Great Tutorial and good info. Thanks mate
Thanks so much for the video. I was thinking about getting this for my brother who lives 4 houses away but this is not very strong sadly :(
how about going with line of site kind of wifi? thin about you can have up till 5km
@@nareshkeswani80 what line of site would you reccomend?
This works fine if you pair it with a outdoor extender and let that extender be in Line of sight of this one. I recommend www.amazon.com/dp/B00N2RO63U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_3DCTX7V1DSYCTAD4XFXZ as long as you can see the access point this extender will do the rest.
Hi Naresh, can i use this Ap as a wifi repeater, just like a wifi extender?
up
How do you setup security to keep someone using your connection?
When setting it up it will ask you to make a security code. Once you log into your wifi router using the app settings and change your router at anytime
So when you are outside are you having to switch to a new network? I am concerned about this with the functionality of wireless speakers connected to my WiFi inside and outside
Mobile has feature of selecting best network and this feature works without any issues whereas for wireless speaker it is bit difficult because OS on them does not have feature of selection from multiple networks, i have got many well market know wifi speaker even in that i have to specific the network to use using app every time when changing location i hope this answer your question
Great video.. Naresh..
Cheers mate.
Is it good for getting a signal through brick walls as I am fitting wireless cameras. Also I would need ethernet cable which also gives you the PoE power supply. Can you recommend a cable?
I would highly recommend you to install this outdoors, there is a drop in signal when passing through walls especially in the UK, it is not only one wall all together three walls, what I did is made up my pwn RJ45 Ethernet patch cable
but if you don't bay tools to build patch cable go for simple 5-meter cat 6 Ethernet cable with rj45 connector toolless plugs search on amazon here is a link for one: the UK Get it Here: amzn.to/3f0OUGS and for the USA Get it Here:amzn.to/2VTIoZE i hope this information would help, let me know if you would like to know more
Awesome information.
What cable do you recommend?
Does this always have to remain connected to the router. Looking to set up using just an ethernet cable via POE switch and no LAN cable if possible?
that should be fine to you can us your own POE switch
Hey bro
Do u think I could use this to cover a large area
Or like a small town
Very good review and demonstrations! With clear line of sight, do you think this would be able to send 100m with respectable ping and speed?
For 100 meters it should be fine at least in open and especially out of UK
Good Review thanks for the information to set it up.
I cannot connect to the EAP network. I can see both 2.4 and 5 GHz but simply cannot connect to them. So I cannot set up the EAP. Please help
Amazing video thank you very much
How many feet height can be installed on the top of the house?
Did you turn your Mobile data off before doing the outdoor signal test?
how many user can connect into it and tellus about its range?
We live remotely and have couple buildings on one lot that we own. (2 acres) Sounds silly, but one is our house for the winter and the other is our cottage closer to the lake for summer. The 2 buildings are about 500ft away from each other. The house has Starlink wired to TP-Link router. What is the best way to get WiFi internet in the cottage (500 ft away from the house source) strong enough to be able to stream movies and run 6 devices. We are not techy so easier the better. Ethernet is hard to run on terrain as many roots, rock and trees between the 2 buildings but we could do a few feet. Any ideas or suggestions??? This model of the TP-Link AC1200 looks interesting. Would you be able to have it run 500ft and strong enough to be good indoors for watching Netflix and streaming other shows with about 6 devices or so?
this one might not be a good option, you need to try something like this amzn.to/3v6dlu6
If you have Virgin why don’t you get a wi-fi exstender Free if you get all tv/sports and the fasted broadband.
Wifi extender which will work outdoor, no chance, and virgin media router doesn't even cove the whole house specifically old Victorian
Nicely done thanks for this
Thank you very your feedback is much appreciated
what was your conclusion? did you like it?
Yes, I did like it that is why I went in trouble of installing it out side in backgarden
If you have another name for it than your wifi inside are you able to control for example your smarthome stuff? I think everything has to be on the same network or not?
no you can't have same names of wifi's around house it will create confusions unless you have Mesh Wifi network
I am going to use this to transmit wifi between two houses 25m apart, will this be enough or I will need a stronger antenna ? Update: I haven’t watched the whole video when you do the distance test. That is cool thanks!
Yes and yes
How many mobile devices could you connect to it at the same time?
Great video! Tks
Hi Naresh,
first of all thanks for the video, wanted to check can I use EPA 225 as wifi repeater.
thank you as far as i remember reaper option isn't avaiable but can be used in mesh network but for that a dedicated controller is required.
Nice good job.
Thank you! Cheers!
My neighbor lets me piggy back of his router. Can I use this without "hard wiring" into his router to boost the signal over to my house?
If it had WPA3 it would be worthy, tech been out there since around 2018, sad slow on implementation... only a few items on market that do WPA3 under $400 USD.. 1 requires subscription, 1 allows 1 side to connect and the other to share, taking place of 2 devices so can see slight premium for that...
Yes but doesn't have WAP
Great , but it still telling me can't find device
Great video. Multiple AP question.
I want to get a signal from my house to my boat in the lake about 450 ft away. There are some trees between but I still have line of site as they are spread about 5-10 feet from one another.
Question: should the 225 give a decent signal to my boat? If not, can I add a second AP in between where there is a power outlet (but no physical network cable).
Thanks
Hi Naresh, im experiencing problems with this AP
seria la diferencia entre la ACP 210 y 110, gracias
What if this is install inside my house like in the meddle so how will it be ?
It will work, but you will have good signal inside house but not outdoors this is due to single been passing through walls
@@nareshkeswani80 oh ok and if outside the rain water will go inside after some time and will rust the parts inside right
So i see this supports mesh, so does it work as a standalone extender? I don't want to wire my garage but want to extend my wifi to it. My current mesh system has to clients that are wireless other than power, can we use the POE adapter just plugged into power and not the LAN and use as an extender in my current mesh setup?
Did you find an answer for that? I would like to use it with Mesh.
Really well explained
Can i also install 2 tp-link AC1200 if yes can you also tell us how? Thanks
Why does my tp link 225 outdoor network speed slows even if I have 2 or 3 bars of wifi
Thanks for this video but I have question If I connect in outdoor my laptop then my I pad and this device is between, can I do mirror from my I pad to laptop by reflector app, so my question this external device can do this because I don't want to use internet on it.
Thank you very much
I don't an issues with it because they all are on same networking sharing information from same internet router
@@nareshkeswani80 thanks bro
I'm worried about the coverage. 300+ meter mentioned in the web/box. But what is the actual coverage area?
for me it is working around 150 meters with strong wifi signal no issues what so ever
@@nareshkeswani80 thanks a lot for your valuable opinion. ☺️❤️❤️❤️
How much customer connect at a time on this device
can you mesh this to an AC1750 router?
Does this work with a range extender? I want to install this outside without running a long cable through the house or drilling a hole.
No this is a POE look at this one www.amazon.com/dp/B00N2RO63U/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_3DCTX7V1DSYCTAD4XFXZ
what is the reccomended elevation/height for tp link ac1200 eap225?
There are point and notes available in user manual, but I have installed it arround height of 8 meters from floor, Merry Christmas
Can we use this as a WiFi extender? Without any Ethernet internet cable?
The effectiveness is not as expected. Try to get a newest Mesh WIFI 6
Great tuto, thank you. I was struggling to get it working and you save my time with your excellent tutorial. Best regards.
Hi sir, good morning will i have a question to you because i have a piso wifi vendo machine, i ask you now if this TPLINK EAP 225 1200AC outdoor if this is compateble for my piso wifi vendo machine?
I don't see why not, come with dual bank of Wifi 2.4 and 5.0 GHz
