Internet out to the shed

The house has internet. The shed, stable or workshop does not. A wireless link carries the connection to that building without a trench across the yard.

Top-down site plan of an acreage property, divided into fenced paddocks with gates. A driveway runs from the road gate to the farmhouse, past a fenced sand horse arena at the front of the property. The farmhouse is the hub: the rectangular Starlink Standard dish sits on a tripod on its Colorbond roof, and the router gives Wi-Fi inside the house. Three separate dotted bridge links run from radios on the farmhouse eaves to radios on the eaves of the stables, the workshop and the machinery shed down the back, which has the longest link. Each of those three buildings has an indoor Wi-Fi access point. Every link passes clear of the tree canopies. The arena has no equipment. A note reads: We check line of sight between buildings before we quote.
Example layout: one Starlink at the house, linked to the stables, workshop and machinery shed.

Internet to the shed. Wi-Fi inside it.

A wireless link carries the internet to the shed. If people, cameras or machines need coverage inside, the shed also needs its own access point. We can quote both together.

No trench across the yard

Trenching across driveways and paddocks is a big job, and a buried cable can be damaged later. With a clear line of sight, a wireless link is often the quicker, tidier option.

How we do it

If the house Wi-Fi drops out before it reaches the shed, this is the fix. Distance is rarely the limit on a rural block; a clear line of sight is what matters. We check line of sight and distance on site before we quote. We use TP-Link Omada EAP215-Bridge kits, with UniFi Building Bridge or UISP airMAX as the alternative. Mark both buildings in the property planner and we'll take it from there.

Radios run on surge-protected power, which needs a power point at each end. A new power point is a registered electrician's job, and solar is case by case.

A network the cameras can use

Often it's the network, not the camera, that holds CCTV back. A camera in the shed, the stable or at the gate needs a link, power and a switch first.

The prices below are for the installed job. Your final price depends on distance, line of sight, mounting, cable, power, switching, the number of buildings and whether you want a controller.

Questions

Will an indoor mesh unit reach the shed?
Not reliably. If the shed can't pick up the house Wi-Fi, it needs a wireless link or a cable, plus its own access point if people or cameras need coverage inside.
How do I ask for a camera plan?
Tell us the property, how many cameras and what you want to see. We'll reply with a plan.

We use these details to reply to this enquiry. See our Privacy information.

Mark the house, the shed and the gate.

Map your home, shed, stable, office or gate before we quote your network. Drop a pin on each building. We check line of sight and distance on site before we quote, so we can tell whether house Wi-Fi will reach or a building needs its own link.

Example only: House → Stable → Gate
