Are these all LOS shots? I can't get the M2 to go through a single tree. I think it is multipathing working to our advantage because of the wider beamwidth. We don't have near the amount of trees that you have, but I have literally had to go back to every Nanobeam M2 install and swap them out because of service issues.

I see way better performance to a M2 Nanostation and reflector. The TX rate always suffers (like the link you just put in). This is in contrast to a M5 400 where I see better performance than a M5 Nanostation and reflector.

I've noticed that auto almost always chooses the same channel that my customer's CPE is on. It appears that the router is looking for the lowest noise level, ignoring the fact that the 802.11 signal is strong, but isn't registered as noise. My working theory as to why *every* router on auto hits the channel that feeds my customers. I guess one hitch is I'm running 10MHz channels now, so realistically the routers shouldn't be able to see it, though I suppose the sub carriers are still the same. If anyone has any input that'd be awesome. ----- Original Message ----- From: Ken Hohhof To: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, November 14, 2015 4:08 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] link problems Customer routers used to mostly default to WiFi channel 6, but now they typically are set by default to AUTO and in many cases to use an extension channel, so 6+11 or 1+6. We try to change the customer's router to a fixed 20 MHz channel on channel 6, then we avoid using the middle of the band for our APs. If your CPE setup is such that customers can hook up a new router and it just works, over time they will migrate back to AUTO 20/40 MHz. OK, actually we avoid using 2.4 GHz anymore, but that's what we've done on our legacy 2.4 GHz sites.

You really need to know what the noise is like at each sector. However, when I use 10 MHz channels, I try to take advantage of the fact that you're only using a 1/2 channel. You're goig to get better results (most of the time) when you're at the edges. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 11/14/2015 1:52 PM, Tim Reichhart wrote: Bill my other sectors at the same tower is on 6,9 should I go with 1 and 11 with 10mhz?

Poke around at the sub end and see what else is on what channel. Typically, there will be less noise at channel 1 or 11. Most SOHO routers are going to be on channel 6, and putting your stuff on 7 will get local interference most of the time. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 11/14/2015 1:34 PM, Tim Reichhart wrote: Josh these stats are at the CPE and I even have the rf shields on the AP's and the ap's are up 150ft up the air.
