Hey guys, been a while since I have been on here.My friends are building a new double story house next year and they were asking me about how they should install wireless around the house.From what I have read in here previously, first we should make sure they get a Network cupboard in the garage so the Internet , Switches and Cablingcan all meet in one place.They want both 2.4ghz and 5ghz coverage. I was thinking of getting the Ubiquiti UAP-PRO and placing three of these all in the bottom floor of the home, mounted on the ceiling.One Left, Right and Center throughout the house where there is a decent open space. Cat5e cables will be running to these access points, don't like the idea of a repeater setup.Since they are mounted on the ceiling, I'm hoping they shoot up wireless to the second floor with decent signal strength.I haven't really done anything like this before, I know that Wireless signal can be significantly reduced by concrete walls or even just walls.I have read pretty good reviews on the Ubiquiti product range, the one feature I really like is how you can have a single SSID throughout the houseeven with multiple access points.So what do you guys think of my plan, any advice? Also is there any software that i can upload the house plan and try emulating how the coverage would be like?Cheers and thanks a bunch!
