Connecting Ubiquiti Litebeam link to Network Access Hub
Hi all, We are replacing our old ZTE cell modem with a new fibre connection using the Network Access hub. We currently have a Ubiquiti Litebeam AC5 link radio to our remote building for internet acc...
The WAN static IP on the router would likely have been the problem. The NH20 has a default subnet of 192.168.1.x. If you haven't changed that subnet on the NH20, either manually reserve a static IP for that router on the NH20, or change the WAN IP on the router itself manually and reboot everything.
The NH20 will not be able to assign any IPs to devices if you have a router on the far end as that router would be assigning IPs itself. Only exception would be if you have the router in bridged mode or as an access point only so that DHCP would be handled by the NH20.

Thanks Nighthawk! We have a winner.
I had changed the subnet in the NH20 to 192.168.0.x so I wouldn't have to change things at the remote site. What finally did it was to change the remote router WAN to Dynamic IP, and then ultimately, when it powered down last night (solar site) and rebooted this morning, it came back up, was assigned an IP and is working 100%. Amazingly fast. I can stream all 4 Reolink cameras at the highest res and framerate and it's completley smooth.
Thank you so much everyone for your help, much apprciated.
Cheers!
