Hi, ive been using these units for some time now as temporary internet access to two buildings. It has been working, barely, up until yesterday. I was wondering if i could get some assistance with the best settings to use for the following setup. I am a bit newbish to the wireless game, like i said, this was a temporary thing until a permanent solution is brought in for the customer. Since we put this in, the trees have grown leaves, and its been a challenge to keep it running. Im sure there is something i should be doing that im not, that will get this back rolling.
AP is housed at the location that has the current internet connection. Its a 900AP with the 5.24 firmware, a 5 foot long omni antenna.
Both locations are about a half a kilometer away maximum, with a thin line of trees in between. It has a 900CPE running the 5.24 firmware, and a 5 foot long directional antenna.
Currently, i am at the location with the AP, i can ping the CPE with a few droppedand can access the interface, slowly, but if i go to the other location, i cannot even ping the AP or access the interface.
Ive played with different ACK settings, power outputs, fragmentation, etc. but to no avail. I have to have the power maxed on both ends to get the signal i can get now, otherwise i lose it altogether.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Maury
