Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
yeah, turn your power WAYYY down! That'll give you a -51 signal at 4 miles. You only need a -65 to get top speed with high availability. You'd even do well with -70. Not sure if you can turn the cards down to 10dB or not but that's about all you'll need for output. I'd set the noise floor to a -75 or -80 too. marlon - Original Message - From: Akinlolu Ajayi-Obe aajayi...@as-technologies.com To: wireless@wispa.org Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2010 11:23 PM Subject: [WISPA] MT PtP I want to setup an MT point to point using two MT 411 boards, 350mw cards and a 23db rootena.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
If the link is good I would enable nstreme. Pay attention to your over the air rates. If they tend to ³flap² I would lock out the higher rates. You will get a better CCQ out of the link by doing that. If it were me I would enable WDS unless you are using the ³CPE² end as a station in router mode. Our typical setup is WDS bridges with routers at the bottom. I am sure there is some more but that is what is falling out of my head at the moment.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
What 350mw card are you using? I wouldn't use anything less than XR5 or R5H because their receive sensitivity is so much better. Plus you will use MMCX connectors with these two cards which is going to save you a lot of headaches over u.fl. Also definitely turn on N-stream.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
With one radio. So if using one radio, do you add a second antenna to the setup to give you full duplex or how are you setting it all up? I've only seen it running with dual cards so I'm kinda interested in the single card setup.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
I think you are talking NSTREME dual tab on the wireless table. That is for full duplex which some love and some hate. If you go into the individual wireless card interface there is a Nstreme tab to enable and disable that on that one card. From MT Nstreme pdf: The nstreme protocol is MikroTik proprietary wireless protocol created to improve point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless links. Nstreme2 or Dual works with a pair of wireless cards (Atheros AR5211 and AR5212 MAC chips only) - one for transmitting data and one for receiving. Benefits of nstreme protocol: * Client polling * Very low protocol overhead per frame allowing super-high data rates * No protocol limits on link distance * No protocol speed degradation for long link distances * dynamic protocol adjustment depending on traffic type and resource usage Hope that helps Steve Barnes Manager PCS-WIN RC-WiFi Wireless Internet Service -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of Robert West Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2010 12:11 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: Re: [WISPA] MT PtP With one radio.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
Yes I have used the R5H and LOVE IT. Very nice card and a good price. I think it performs better than the XR5. However some people say that the card burns up easily but I run them all locked at 20db power output for all the modulation rates. I do this for two reasons. First so that the signal level stays consistent across all the rates, and Second, if they do have an issue with burning up, I'm running them at 1db under their rated power output so I'm not stressing the power amplifier built into the card. Also don't ever power them up without an antenna attached I've heard that makes them burn up as well. I have not had any such problems at all. Kurt Fankhauser WAVELINC P.O.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
I've had two burn out from the connector popping off for whatever reason. I learned to tape them on after that. But even with that, I finally pulled them all down. But they really do make for a great dual band card for laptops, the R52H ones, that is. Since we run both 2.4 and 5.8 I can see everything with them.

Re: [WISPA] MT PtP
Some people say there is 1db or 2db loss on the pigtail due to the MMCX connector. This is not the MMCX connectors fault but it is due to the connector being a right angle connector. I finally caught on to this when I was testing a right angle barrel N-connector versus a straight barrel N-connector. Anything with a right angled connector was showing a loss of 1-2db. Switched to straight-MMCX connectors and gained a couple db on all links. And this right angled connector loss is present on EVERYTHING from cable TV to VHF/UHF land mobile radio's. I put a right angled F-connector adapter on a cable TV coax once and the TV screen went from clear to fuzzy. I won't use right angle connectors on anything anymore no matter what it is, wireless internet or whatever. Kurt Fankhauser WAVELINC P.O.

The right angle N connector should not be trusted unless it is an Amphenol. Many of the imports have a ball point pen spring inside that does the right angle.

Well, let me log in and test... A note: the local environment has lots of noise... All H-Pol 5MHz channel width tower A is seen at -60, sees AP at -59 connection shows 54Mbps/4/54Mbps/4 Thruput AP to tower 6.4Mbps, tower to AP 5.9MBps tower B is seen at -77, sees AP at -77 connection shows 36Mbps/4/36Mbps/4 Thruput AP to tower 2.8Mbps, tower to AP 2.1Mbps Wider channels have lots of drops...
