Well we now know what I will be doing this weekend.

Lan Cable - Check.

TP-Link TL-WA850RE x 5 - check

VDSL routers - check

Telkom Landline active - not yet

Ubiquity nanostations - on my way to scoop in a few minutes.

That is a terrible terrible terrible idea.

Dump the TP-Links completely and the Nano Station concept.

All you need is the VDSL Router and two (possibly three) UniFi AP's.

Also 5 Range extenders is going to give you a terrible network with no bandwidth left and probably massive latency.

Utter waste of money.

Buy the UniFi's.

Yes and not meant for indoor use at all, it's meant for broadcasting to your entire neighbourhood from the roof.

You want the wrong things for the wrong purposes.

You will end up returning it and they will laugh at you.

No no. That is what I want. Wifi everywhere I go

I just learned now I will have to have two of these things one inside Asian Asia if I want to instagram like I do.

that is what I will now do.

Suit yourself if you like burning money.

Rather spend less on 3G...

They're usually meant to be used in pairs, so you need another one on the other side who can ye'll just as loud back with a response.

You wouldn't use two Rocket M2 radios and two Omni antennas to connect to each other ;) :p More like an omni as AP, and a PowerBeam M2, or Rocket M2 paired with a dish to connect to the Omni.
