OK, then it's not what I was thinking. If you had software on them older
than 13.2 I believe, and you also had an AP where the factory reversed
the pigtails internally, your beacons would end up on horizontal instead
of vertical and the SM probably wouldn't hear it.
You say you're getting 8X/1X but it's also not registering. That does
not compute. As other have suggested, try locking down the SM's scan
list to the exact frequency and channel bandwidth that the AP is on.
Tone alignment helps. If you can get a laptop, tablet, phone, etc. and
look at the Tools > AP Eval page on the SM, does anything show up there?
That's one of the first things our techs are supposed to do when
troubleshooting on-site. If it's obviously not an alignment issue, log
in and look at the AP eval.

There still seems to be some misconception on this. 8X/1X means that
it's 8X capable / 1X current. It's always going to show 8X capable (or
2X for FSK, 3X for 430). After the / is what you need to pay attention
to. Also, the uplink and downlink are independent. On the AP session
status page (power tab), that's the downlink rate to that SM. On the
SM main page, link status, etc., that's the uplink rate to the AP.
What band is this? 2.4, 3.6, 5.4 or 5.7? And what software version do
you have on the radios? It'd be best to stick with 13.2.1 for now.
For the longest time I too thought this was backwards. I assure you
it's correct.

Signals on each side?
8x down 1x up? Could be an uplink path issue or heavy
interference at the AP side. Have you changed frequencies?
Spectrum analysis? Is this the first SM on the AP?

am new to the pmp450 looks straight forward but am having
issues registering it from a distance
when I point the sm which is 12 feet in front of the ap it
syncs 8x by 1x ...but if I go 1mile down the road it doesn't
register at all
not sure what am doing wrong...has anyone had this similar
issue like this?
thanks
