Outdoor WiFi for Yards, Parks and Rural Properties

Outdoor WiFi extends a network past the walls, across a yard, a caravan park, a sports ground or the space between a farmhouse and its sheds. We install weather-rated access points on poles and buildings, and link distant areas back to the main network by cable or wireless bridge.

Where outdoor coverage usually fails

Indoor WiFi leaking out a window

Signal from an indoor access point fades fast once it has passed through an external wall, and devices outside struggle to send anything back.

Caravans and trees in the way

Metal-skinned vans and dense foliage block signal, so a park that is covered when empty can have dead sites when it is full.

No cable out there

The area that needs coverage is across a road, a paddock or a hardstand, with no easy path for a cable.

Gear that was never meant for weather

Indoor equipment in a plastic box lasts a season or two. Sun, rain and dust finish it off.

What goes in

Rated for the weather, placed for line of sight

Outdoors, the access point has to be close to the people using it and able to see them. We design around mounting points, power and how each location connects back.

  1. 1

    Outdoor-rated access points

    Equipment built for sun, rain and dust, mounted on poles, eaves or walls at a height that suits the area being covered.

  2. 2

    Several smaller cells, not one big one

    More access points closer to users works better than a single powerful one, because phones and laptops have to reach back too.

  3. 3

    Cable where practical, wireless links where not

    Access points are cabled where a route exists. Remote poles and buildings are joined with point-to-point links.

  4. 4

    One network across the site

    Indoor and outdoor areas share the same network, with guest access and limits applied the same way everywhere.

How the job runs

From first message to working network

Step 1

Show us the site

An aerial image marked with the areas to cover, existing poles and buildings with power, and where the internet comes in.

Step 2

Design and quote

Larger outdoor sites are visited first. The written quote covers mounting, cabling or links, and the network behind them.

Step 3

Install

Poles and brackets, outdoor cabling, access points and any wireless links are installed and aligned.

Step 4

Test on the ground

We walk or drive the site checking coverage where people will actually be standing, parked or camped.

Quoting

What shapes the quote

Every building is different, so we quote each job on its own details rather than from a price list. These are the things that move it.

Answers

Outdoor WiFi: common questions

Can you cover a whole caravan park?
Yes. Parks are covered with a number of pole or building-mounted access points spread through the sites, joined by cable or wireless links, with guest access controls so the connection is shared fairly.
What about a farm or rural block?
Typically the house network is extended to sheds, workshops and yards with point-to-point links, and each building gets its own access point. Anywhere the two ends can see each other is a candidate.
Does outdoor equipment need power at every pole?
Access points are powered through their network cable, so a cabled access point needs no separate power point. A pole fed by a wireless link does need power for the equipment on it.
Will it survive the weather?
We use equipment rated for outdoor use and mount and seal it properly. Coastal sites and the tropics are harder on hardware, and we take that into account when choosing it.

Tell us what the building is and where the WiFi lets you down. A floor plan or a few photos helps if you have them, and we will ask for those when we call.

Rather talk it through?

Tell us what the building is, where the WiFi drops out and what is installed now. We will tell you what we would do about it.
