Might need to run a cable. 250m is to far. I lose mine after about 50m
wana surf ausbb while your milking the cows?
I've run cat5 for fucking miles, literally when I did work at an army base the biggest continuous run was 5k, wasn't aware there was any kind of limit to the effectiveness of fibre.Most that I read say their is a limit to Ethernet cable. 100m or something
I am looking at options to boost the signal. I know there is no way standard wifi will work. It doesn't even do my house.

Get a drum and trench a conduit, couple hundred metres is nothing. I'm doing a 15 storey at the moment and using cat5 run over the full height if the building and spidered out to ea unit no problem.
Signal loss is referred to as Attenuation.
Cat 5 is 285 feet.
Cat 6 will go to around 700 feet or something of that length. The longest I've run of Cat 6 is 630 feet.
The longer the cable, the longer it takes for the data to get there. (its a joke)
Most of the time in your home, you can get away with Cat 5. If you start pushing 250 feet, you may want to move on to Cat 6. 6 is slowly replacing 5 right now and you might as well spend the extra penny to go with it.
cat5 isnt fibre optics genius
