I haven't tried, but I would doubt it. Urban Area. Sitting inside my
house, I can pickup 5 of my neighbors Cable/DSL Modems.

Nate, can you get enough bandwidth through a 10MHz 2.4GHz signal?

I'm not sure which end is getting multipath, as both ends signal is
affected equally.� The Foliage is closer to the low end.� Antenna
height at the low end is at about 40'� I estimate the trees to be
about 80' and about 1/10 mile out.�

yeah sometimes 3' up or down makes a world of difference.

Nate,
Chuck is right. How high are the radios on each end of the
link? Sometimes you can get around multipath issues by
changing the radio heights. Most of the time I see
improvements by lowering the height on the side that's
suspected of getting the multipath.

that a larger capture area may have something to do with it.�

Powerbridge has a wider beamwidth and picks up from "around
the trees".� I've seen this only at a customer site with a
Beam vs Nanostation.� Roughly the same signal but the Beam
was absolutely worthless compared to the Nanostation.

the claims to fame of the PTP600, was that it handled

NLOS, 5ghz, Foliage, and Rain
I have a PTP NLOS link which is working the opposite of what I
expect, and I'm having trouble understanding it.� It is a
NLOS link in 5ghz (2.5 mile link, Urban area, <1/8 Mile is
NLOS). UBNT, 2' dish to a Powerbridge.� Here's the part I
can't figure out.� Over the summer, when the trees are
leafed in, the link is rock solid, no signal change, No
modulation change. Rain, Shine, Night, Day, stays exactly the
same.� However, over the winter, when there are no leaves,
it loses signal, and the signal and modulation fluctuate
dramatically. Rain will drop the link out.� I have tried
re-alignment after the foliage has dropped off, and was not
able to gain signal, or change the pattern at all.� I'm
guessing it must be some sort of Multi-path/reflection that
the foliage is blocking. Would a different radio handle this
better than the UBNT?� Like if I changed it to EPMP, AF5x,
or PTP600 would it act differently?� Or is there something
else at play that I haven't thought of?
