Another vote for powerline networking. I'm using a pair of the Belkin VideoLink 200Mbps sets on a 600 foot combo of buried Romex and extension cords to a Compaw Armada 1GHz PIII laptop and 3G CDMA modem running as a router. Oddly, it doesn't work without the UPS connected on the supply side, it must reflect the signal up the cable or limit noise. It has no problems with the 3/1Mb connection  , though I can easily max out the 15MB/s of the laptop drive copying over the network.

FlyingCheese posted:Some things would work, some things wouldn't for instance, websites wouldn't work but Steam does. Logging into my TP-Link router and doing a release/renew on the WAN IP fixes it for another couple hours. That really sounds like a DNS issue where traffic works but websites aren't accessible sporadically , are you using the ISP's DNS servers? If you can add others, try OpenDNS IPs (208.67.222.222, 208.67.220.220) or Google's (8.8.8.8, 8.8.4.4).

Putting up my little hinged rack today, its been fun finding out that my Cisco panel antenna cables are so short I can't open the rack all the way. Boo.

Something with hardware crypto is likely your best bet. The WISP I work for uses Mikrotik* and the VPN performance is great. *They're Cloud Core Routers but there's other options for hardware acceleration: RB1000 RB1100AHx2 All CloudCoureRouter series boards RB850Gx2 Hex v3 from Here

All of my Internet of poo poo/dev stuff goes through a VLAN with packet capture in case something gets clever. It was as easy as setting the VLAN tag for that SSID in the UniFi controller, and some src-NAT in the RouterBoard so I had separate DHCP ranges for each SSID/tag. It decodes the VLAN for the garbage(severely limited and logged), one for guests (no NAS+limits), and the normal everything traffic. I have an UniFi AC-LR, 450G and an old Netgear GS108. My workspace has two drops, one for each VLAN so I can have wired IoT/dev be monitored still and not need another routerboard. I'm changing to either the 960PGS or the EdgeRouter POE since my Internet connection is via a Powerbeam ac and I hate the drat powerbricks.
