This then unencrypted it before passing it to the ADSL equipment. This then re-encrypts all data (using AES256) whilst passing it up to the core router. This is then encrypted and passed to the wifi-device on the outside of your building. This gathers all your traffic for the internet, combines it into a single 'pipe' (using a protocol called 'PPPoE'). Our client premises equipment ('CPE') router is a Mikrotik 951.

Some customer premises might also need a Ubiquiti NanoStation Loco to connect to our backbone. These will connect using PPPoE to the AAA router. Our accounting, authorisation and access (AAA) router is a Mikrotik RB1100x2, and our consumer premises equipment (CPE) is a Mikrotik 951-2n. As they run using Power over Ethernet, only one low-voltage standard ethernet cable (up to 40m long) then links it to the power source. They're also completely self contained, light, and weatherproof. These can run up to 300mb/s network links and extend these links up to 30km. In our case, we have standardised on Ubiquity Nanostation M5 devices. Then we mount a wireless device outside, provide it some power and network, and add it to the network.įrom this central core of wireless devices, we can then provide consumers or business with their own hubs, which give them a completely secure, reliable and above all fast connection to the internet. This involves using Google Earth (or even better, the Ubituity Airlink Wireless Link checker) to establish that we have line-of-sight access. We then run wireless links from there to a location convenient to our rural target.

We start off with a station with good internet access - in our case, Montrose is the nearest location with decent internet provision. Give me the technical low down on how it works We can install it anywhere in your house - it doesn't need to go beside your existing telephone line. We install a wireless device (either a Ubiquiti Nanostation M5 or Ubiquiti Nanostation Loco M5 depending on location) on the outside of your premises which then points to our network of repeater stations.This then passes the signal back to our core router, which then passes it to the internet. We usually place this near existing TV equipment so you can just plug in your TV, Sky box, Playstation, Xbox, etc. This will provide you with four wired RJ45 connections as well as a really good wifi-signal. We install a small white box (a router device - a Mikrotik 951) within your premises.
