Jomadav 0 Posted April 4, 2013 I am looking suggestions for a small, cheap, light, fast WL router to use for work. Similar to the ones people need when they travel. What I am doing is installing IP video cameras and for aiming and focusing I want to view them through the customers network. The problem is they don't always have WiFi and I need to have my laptop close to the cameras to cut down on walking. So, I am thinking if I just add a temporary WL access point/ router while I am doing the job it would make life a lot easier. My thoughts are to just to simply "plug and play" the WL router from job to job. Any suggestions on brand-type-price? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highaltitude 0 Posted April 8, 2013 If you are just looking for onsite wireless access then really any wifi router will work. Just turn off DHCP service on the router and plug the network uplink to one of the switch ports. I normally just use an Ubiquiti bullet with an omni antenna (its small and sturdy) that was recycled and re purposed from a previous project. Brand new with everything will run about $120.Here is a link: http://www.ubnt.com/airmax#bulletm But you could pick up a standard wifi router or AP from Best Buy.
