Currently have a Nanostation M, looking for more consistant and better signal. Is this a better product, if not then what?

For what you pay it will be your best bet , im shooting a signal from about 2 miles and i get perfect signal the biggest part is alignment!
1932802
I would say yes, it gives you the option for long/short range two or just one antenna, been using a set for over 6 months and I'm verrrrry pleased would definitely recommend this product.

I use them for my Lynx Timing System during track meets I host. They work very well. I have not had any issues with them. Signal strength has always been very strong.
1932804
Yes these do deliver great signal. I have set some as far as a mile apart and it about like having an Ethernet cable connecting you to the remote device. Just make sure to read the setup wiki on ubiquiti's website otherwise it can be a hassle. If you read it though it is very simple.

I have this setup at a miles distance and find it quit reliable. However you need a pair to make it reliable and line of sight.

I know with this one, this one has spotty reception, but I think that the one you may be looking for is this one: Pioneer GEX-INNO2BK Inno 2 Portable XM Satellite Radio with MP3 Capability. It looks the same, but I heard it gets better reception (I have the previous model), but if you are definitely looking into getting a Satellite radio, I think your best bet is to get the one that I mentioned. Just my personal opinion, also I've read a lot of good things about the other receiver.

I do not own either of these two devices. But, I have a 5-port device that is similar. From what I can tell, one of the two is metallic and the other is plastic. I am always interested in the metallic devices which can be more durable and appear to offer more shielding. The plastic model offers some energy saving capabilities that I did not notice in the metallic one. It is possible that one model offers multiple pathways at the same time so that more than two devices can communicate across it at the same time, and I would guess that the plastic one can do that, but I am not that familiar with these models to be sure. As both are gigabit capable and both have the same number of ports, then you are free to make your own choice. Good luck.

No. It will not work. It is the wrong frequency. At 3 miles, your Nanobridges will work like gangbusters unless you have a line of sight (LOS) issue. You should review the Ubiquiti forums about your issue there.

This is a "it depends". If you are using the new ac wireless standard and have a good signal it may offer noticeable speed improvement. As slower standards and/or signal quality degrades any improvement at the diskstation side will become unimportant. The real question is can you really get much 100Mbps real throughput with *your* wireless environment?Some may disagree but I find a wired connection to be the most dependable for high-throughput situations. There are too many variables to be more specific but I hope this answer will help at least a little. This is a "it depends".

I used a single unit, and to be honest with you I had problems with the 4 wireless units interfering with one another. I think it would be worth spending the extra money to buy something of higher quality. Hope this helped.

It doesn't make any difference who the wireless carrier is, what you want is a signal that is wireless {N} compatible. Also the distance and obstructions must be considered. What I did was email the support group at NETGEAR. Just go to their website at www.netgear.com. They really helped me. HOPE THIS HELPS!

I am sorry, but I cant help you. I am not a tech-y expert. I will advise that I have no problem with its normal performance as the signal travels between concrete walls in my home.

A nanobridge m5 is a 5.8 and a m2 is 2.4 so they won't connect with each other. The 2 you purchased should work just fine I've got some connected over 15 miles. Hard to aim. Set one as a access point the other as station. Make sure there both on the same frequency.

From a connectivity stand point, there are no differences between the units. I have found the descriptions posted by Amazon can be very vague. I find myself needing to do more research before buying and usually on the mfg. website.

It has the ability to be setup as a repeater, but that isn't the best use. In the best case scenario, it is a radio only. They sell a nanostation that can receive a wifi network and create an Ethernet port

I have the MURS system that operates on 156 MHz. My first transmitters I bought had a BNC connector on them . The two transmitters I bought within the last 7 months had an SMA connector and a mating rubber duck antenna. The rubber duck antennas are not very efficient egardless of who makes them. an 18 inch long wire would work better.

Not really sure when I was setting it up with my Pi I was showing like -198db (I really know next to nothing about signal strength so I assume that isn't good) when I plugged it into my PC that is slightly farther away it was getting 4/5 bars (which is generally a good thing) so who knows. Once I got it working with on my Pi it really hasn't been a problem, course the most intensive tasks it handles is the occasional apt-get.Probably best not to expect the moon from any of these micro wifi dongles since their internal antenna is uber tiny.

I am a it pro and personally I would save your money. I have use a bunch of different antennas and I have seen very little change. a better access point is a much better option. if you are trying to go between building I like engenius outdoor access point if it is inside I like a dlink dap1522. if you use either of theses you want to set them up with a static ip they are much easier that way,

I have not used that one but using channel master I am getting signals as far as 70 or more miles with also using signal amp. hope this helps.

I have used the Yongnuo transceivers. The batteries drain faster than the PocketWizard. They have a shorter range. And the connectors are not very reliable. The PocketWizard is a much better build and has features that the Yongnuo does not have. If you want to go cheap, you get what you pay for.

I had a similar problem with poor signal strength in the front part of my house. The ZyXel 300 looked like a good solution. My son, an IT guy installed and configured it. It worked great for a few days. It still works, but has to be rebooted frequently, and has had to be reconfigured several times. I can't say that I would recommend it.
