Preparing for the new house I did a great deal of research on new trends in WiFi.  I was impressed with the Linksys Velop (Belkin Network Products).  I waited for a sale and purchased a three pack.  I may have been able to get by with two units, but I wanted to make sure I had coverage in the Barn and the chicken coop.

Velop is a 100% mesh network – A Velop modular Wi‑Fi mesh system outperforms traditional routers and range extenders giving you 100% seamless Wi‑Fi without lag or buffering. With other Wi‑Fi, the signal degrades as you move farther away from the router, leaving you susceptible to dropped connections. Velop gives you full-strength Wi‑Fi everywhere.

While I was waiting for the water delivery for the pool I installed the new network behind the old network so I can transition the cameras with out problems.  I only install two nodes one in the Bunk House and one in the barn.

The process was very straightforward and took about 45-minutes including the firmware update.

The plus was we now have the same signal at the dock as in the barn and the bunk and the main house.  I will retest after the dry wall in installed next week.

At this point I am extremely happy with the results
