I need two weather-rated Ubiquiti access points mounted outside my home and connected to my network. I have 2 Orbi units indoors, though would consider changing. I may need a new poe switch. Scope of work • Supply and mount two exterior-grade Ubiquiti APs (UniFi Mesh or another model you recommend) on the soffit/eaves for broad yard coverage. • Run Cat-6 or Cat-5 cabling back to a new PoE switch, keeping the runs neat and protected from the elements. • Configure the APs in the UniFi controller (?) so the SSID, guest network match my current indoor setup. • Verify roaming, signal, and security outdoors once everything is live. Acceptance criteria 1. Both units are visible in the UniFi dashboard (?). 2. Outdoor coverage reliably reaches areas where outdoor wireless security cameras will be placed. 3. Cables, glands, and mounts are weather-sealed and tidy. I’m around most days and attic access is reasonable. Let me know what hardware you recommend, an estimate of costs, installation time, and any questions you have. Ted 281-733-4507

Hi, I can help you design and install a clean, reliable outdoor WiFi setup using Ubiquiti UniFi equipment. I’ve worked on similar residential installs where we mounted weather-rated APs on soffits/eaves, ran properly protected Cat6 cabling, and integrated everything into a UniFi controller with seamless roaming and guest network support. For your setup, I’d recommend UniFi U6 Mesh or U6 Pro (depending on coverage needs), paired with a UniFi PoE switch for clean power and centralized management. I’ll ensure weather-sealed penetrations, tidy cable routing, and full configuration so both APs show up in the dashboard and match your current network settings. Once installed, I’ll verify signal strength, roaming performance, and coverage specifically in your camera zones to meet your acceptance criteria. Happy to provide a quick hardware list, cost estimate, and timeline once I confirm a few details about your home layout and existing network. Best regards, Christopher

Hi there, I can help with your outdoor Wi-Fi upgrade and professional installation of two weather-rated Ubiquiti access points. I understand the goal is strong, reliable yard coverage for cameras and outdoor devices, while keeping the installation clean, secure, and easy to manage. Based on your setup, I would likely recommend two UniFi outdoor-rated APs such as the U6 Mesh or another model depending on yard size and layout. If needed, I can also supply and install a properly sized PoE switch to power both units and simplify network management. Scope includes: • Mounting two exterior APs under soffit/eaves for optimal coverage • Running neat Cat-6/Cat-5 cabling back to the switch/network location • Weather-sealing cable entries, glands, and mounts • Configuring SSID, guest network, and security settings to match or improve your current Orbi setup • Testing roaming, signal strength, and outdoor performance Acceptance goals will be fully addressed: both APs online in UniFi dashboard, strong camera-area coverage, and tidy weather-protected installation. Typical installation time is 1 day depending on cable paths and attic access. Hardware cost depends on final model selection and whether a new PoE switch is needed. Please share your home size, yard layout, and current network cabinet location, and I can provide an accurate estimate. Best regards, Jacob
