Hi there, Im looking for any help I can get on this one.

I have an off the grid self-build home in Rural Wales. 

For the most part the house runs like any other, I have a 48v Lifep04 battery bank powering the house via an Outback Inverter. 

All the house appliances run like you would expect. However, Im conscious that we don't have a huge capacity battery bank & solar in this part of the world is poor for about half the year. As a result I really try my best to reduce any unnecessary electricity loads. 

This brings me on to the internet. We have 2 problems.

Problem 1: our current internet is supplied via a copper phone line & we are many miles from the exchange. We are literally the end of the line. As a result our download speed is 3mb... Yes 3mb !

I don't want to go down the Starlink route as they seem really juicy on power & the missus hates Musk (dont want to get political).

It is worth mentioning also that the 4g on our land isn't amazing but it has to be better than the current home Wifi.

So I am currently looking into the option of an outside 4g router/antenna, with some kind of switch/router with POE & a Wifi AP

One possible setup Ive found is: 

Mikrotik 4G LTE6 POE Router SXT

Mikrotik hEX POE (RB960PGS)

Mikrotik RouterBoard cAP Lite - RBcAPL-2nD

I'd be interested to hear anyones thoughts on this. I know I have a lot to learn still. 

Also worth mentioning that we have access to a Welsh government grant (ABC) of up to £500 to buy the hardware that will provide our home with decent internet... in theory 

Thanks in advance

Dan
