[QUOTE="quad, post: 16602897, member: 17952"] Most wired / wireless routers can also function as an access point. You just have to configure it for that mode in the router's control panel. I use an ASUS RT-AC68U. It sells for $118.11 on Amazon right now. You might be able to get a better deal somewhere else. I paid $129 for it back in 2019. It will also double up as a switch. That way you can plug in 4 devices via CAT6/7 if you ever needed to. I am getting around 500 Mbps to one of these access points with my iPhone 12 Pro Max. Our internet service is gigabit fiber. I can get up to around 950-980 Mbps with a wired connection over CAT6. CAT6 can go up to 10 Gbps and CAT7 40 Gbps over 50 meters and 100 Gbps over 15 meters! I have 10 Gbps cards and switches that I bought over a year ago and have not yet gotten around to installing it lol! So for now our network is limited to a gigabit. There are better / newer routers out there but will cost more and probably overkill for wireless access point purposes. I assume you will have protection for the device against the elements (rain, snow etc.)?
