Planning electrical systems to be future-proof

Which APs do you want to use? Or have you already named them?

No, neither named nor researched. I noted down the Unifi Nano HD because I came across it here. But that was a "from the virgin to the child" thing. I would like to avoid extra power supply.

1. I wouldn’t do without a utility room.
Definitely prepare network cables for the terrace first and install a third access point if needed.

Understood! Can the device then be exposed to wind and weather or does it have to be placed in a protected spot?

With the Fritzbox you then have a separate network. It’s annoying when WLAN jumps back and forth between 2 networks.

All right. Please as simple and interference-resistant as possible.

Of course, you could use the Fritzbox for the guest network if other APs are used.

Thanks for the tip! Then I would leave that device in the technical room and simply turn off Wi-Fi, right?

Guys, I am very grateful to you for sharing your knowledge and experience! :)

I am using the Nano HD. So far without any problems. For outdoor there is from Ubiquiti, I think either the Mesh or Flex Hd. I have no experience with them yet. Access point for the terrace will be installed in spring.

If you want to use APs from Unifi, then turn off the Fritzbox and let it only handle modem, telephone, and router if needed. The Unifis can create a guest network by themselves out of the box. Nano HDs work well. I have three in the house. In the garage, the AC Pro, that was our first one, but it is a bit bigger, so it was moved out. The Flex HD is great for the garden. Except for snow (which we haven’t had so far), it has handled everything. It hangs on the facade above the terrace, completely unprotected. Works well. That’s what it’s partly designed for. It’s also good for indoor use if needed, in case you need a network and have no ceiling/wall mounting option. The radiation pattern is different from the other APs. Just remember the controller needed for Unifi. I wouldn’t use the app; it is very limiting. A Windows computer is enough if the controller doesn’t have to run 24/7. Otherwise, a Cloudkey or, depending on the need, a USG/UDM. But that depends a lot on the requirement. I would not use only the app as the controller.

That sounds good. :) Are the Access Points from Unifi also controllable with a Mac? I only own a MacbookPro.

As far as I know, the controller is also available for macOS. But you better check, I am not sure.

Or run the controller on a Cloud Key, Raspberry Pi, or NAS and access it via browser.
