Ubiquiti Bridge Network

by StavrosKiagias Jun 30, 2015 3:40AM PDT

Hi,
I know little about networking but my dad asked me to bridge his home with his company store, guessing that I am an high-ultra-super-amazingly-talentented computer guy -.- ...Anyway... I have came up these products:

2x AG-HP-2G16 AirGrid M2, AirMax AP-CPE (1 per building)
1x EdgeRouter POE, 5-port Router with PoE (1 at the company building to connect the UniFi *thing* ,AirMax antenna and 2 Ubiquiti cameras(not listed))
1x UniFi 802.11n MIMO Long Range Access Point (1 at the company building for WiFi)

Will they work? Moreover (I know it's a dump question), the company building doesn't have an internet connection ,if i bridge the 2 buildings will I be able share the internet connection from my home?

Thanks!

P.S. Sorry for my english ,I am not a native speaker...

Not too far

The distance between the buildings is 1km without tress or walls in between...

Looks like you need to try it.

And while this states 15KM distances, you know that under ideal conditions. No one I know will guarantee it will work. It might. Try it.

You didn't ask about reliability of the air link.

It's not 100%. Be sure all parties know that going in.

Given only that detail, I have to know more.

Distance plus if the users at the remote location are expecting stability. The thing is with such a setup it might not be stable. That is it may drop out a lot. You won't know till you set it up.
