I have a wired connection into the barn, but it appears my belkin WAP died with the power outages last week.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good wireless access point? It just needs to allow wireless access while out in the barn. It doesn't even need a huge range. Thanks!

Get a proper UPS for the WAP so the power outage doesn't fry the box. I use UPSs on all my computer equipment in the house and haven't had a hardware failure in 12 years.

With that, what's wrong with getting the same model Belkin? Otherwise there's none I have any particular favorite over the other if you're not doing any hacking or anything.

I have an old wireless router in the closet collecting dust. I'll try to remember to pull it tonight. Don't think I'm coming to Michigan for a few weeks, so I'd have to send it to you. PM me if you don't hear from me.

I've come to like the TP-Link items...

On the consumer side I've had the best luck with NETGEAR.

My most resent was an ASUS wireless AP (802.11ac).

Been happy with it.
