Hello, I'm helping you review your Wireless Bridge Project. Your grandparents are getting Spectrum internet and likely the most affordable plan—either 100 Mbps or 300 Mbps. They have a second building, a barn, just over 200 feet away, with a clear line of sight and few obstructions. You're planning to install a P2P wireless bridge between the house and the barn for stable internet in the barn. Your budget is around $150 to $300 for the bridge and PoE injectors.

I checked some options and found a bundle on Amazon: two Ubiquiti NanoStation LOCOM5 P2P-2 kits for $299. There are also TP-Link CPE710 models available for $149. Both seem suitable for your setup.

Your concerns about unfamiliar brands are valid—make sure to verify compatibility with your equipment and local regulations. The clear path and minimal interference should help the bridge perform well. Let me know if you need more details or help comparing specific products!

Thank you for sharing your project!

I think both would work pretty well however the Ubiquiti is more expensive than it should be due to a 3rd party seller and them "pre configuring" it Heres a single unit for reference https://www.amazon.com/Ubiquiti-Networks...ifEALw_wcB So that choice would be up to you, Ubiquiti makes things easy to set up with plenty of guides the hardest part would getting them to line up with each other. TP Link is also a good option in my opinion
