Re: [Ubnt_users] 900 disconnect issue
Have you guys successfully down graded firmware on M radios? Do so by using the normal browser upgrade screen or AC2?

Re: [Ubnt_users] 900 disconnect issue
We have this happen all too often also. And totally agree with the broken bandaid that the watchdog provides. We have found that if we replace the bad radio sometimes once and sometimes twice or more we'll eventually find a new in-box radio that works without the drops. Its terrible but that's what it comes down to.We are looking for a new solution as well. We only use 900 in small cell repeater scenarios where no way around the foliage so what Tommy does with Cambium PMP 900 is too expensive for us for that application.

Re: [Ubnt_users] UBNET 900Mhz
If you need any REAL tree penetration use the Rocket/yagi. We had to upgrade a ton of our M900 Loco links to M900 rocket yagi links to fix them up. But we do not put any 900 on towers its just local short range links.

Do they cut through heavy pine trees? What is the real distance I can archive through pine trees? Does it have sufficient bandwidth throughput? I have 3 customers who would like to sign up. They are about one mile away from the tower. The distance is through heavy pine trees about 80 to 100 feet tall. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance for your reply.

Re: [Ubnt_users] Aligning AF11
I have never tested it but I don't believe a 5GHz radio will work on an 11GHz dish if thats what your doing to test. If you have true wireless line of site you should have no problems getting a link with AF11s. What dishes are you using? I agree with Kurt, take the radios back to the bench and make sure they link up. Did you double check your configuration: master-slave, channel size, frequencies, TX-RX flipped on each side, security key, SSID, etc. Any one of those could cause it to not link up. Also make sure your diplexers are in correctly in each radio. We had that once the manufacturer had the sticker on backwards and it would not link up right till we flipped it over. ALso you can test in SISO mode on both sides to see if that helps. -Original Message- From: ubnt_users-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:ubnt_users-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Forbes Mercy Sent: Friday, September 01, 2017 11:30 AM To: Ubiquiti Users Group Subject: [Ubnt_users] Aligning AF11 We're having some difficulty in aligning a 5.6 mile AirFiber 11 link, they won't associate. We put on a couple of rockets when we couldn't get the 11's to see each other, even with the scan it doesn't see the rocket we put on the other AF11, maybe it's the antenna being tuned to another frequency. The Rocket does see another 5Ghz AP on that tower at -89 but not the one we put on the AF11. Any ideas would be appreciated.
