Consider affordable routers or switches that handle long-distance connections. Look for models designed for extended ranges, possibly with built-in repeaters or mesh capabilities. Ensure they support robust cabling options like Cat6a or higher for the 150-200' span.

The main concern is the cabling itself. Cat5e and Cat6 can handle 1Gbps over distances up to 100 meters or roughly 320 feet. What really counts is whether the cable meets that range.
