Hoping to get recommendations / advice as I’m out of my depth knowledge wise.
I want to set up a wifi network across quite a big property, part of which is a small guest house.
Main requirement is so people don’t have to select different access points with different network names/passwords. There are currently three. I want it to be seamless and whatever devices they are using just connect automatically without them knowing it as they move about.
Other requirements:
1. A friend said to make sure IP6 so the data can be fast and the signal is more powerful, we are about to move from 60MB ADSL to 300MB fibre. Assuming this is good advice?
2. I’d like to be able to add a log in page where people can enter their email address (or sign in with facebook). Not sure if this has to be part of the kit I buy (or the kit at least supports it) or separate software/app?
3. The building right now is served by two ADSL lines, one at either end. Plan would be to keep the 2 even if on fibre as a bit of a fallback in case one went out. One is BT, the other Sky. Can I plug both into the wifi network?
4. Ideally I’d like there to be 2 networks to chose from; one for guests and one for us/family. And if one could go through a VPN.
Any ideas? Anything I’ve missed that I should be thinking of? Any recommendations for particular kit? Looking to spend up to £300 max for kit with 3 access points.
Any help much appreciated.
