Thank you for this, I am able to get internet to my barn now. Problem is, only one device can use wifi at a time. Any ideas were I went wrong?

Hey Morgan, glad I could get you this far. Do you have a router down at the barn transmitting its own wireless network? Or are you just relying on the antenna to do all the work? Just wanted to clarify. If it’s a local barn network, I wonder if something is toggled in the settings on the barn router. Like maybe it’s only approving corrections from a single mac address.

Hey! I have it so that the CPE is doing all the work. I do have an extra router I've plugged into it as well, but that doesn't make any difference. The wifi is great down there now! Just only one device at a time.

That is so weird, but networking feels more like an art than a science sometimes. I haven’t looked at the settings on the CPE lately but I’m wondering if something there is making trouble. The manufacturer actually responded to one of my emails so you might reach out. Would love to hear if you figure this out. How far away is your barn?
