Re: [AFMUG] Mikrotik PWR-LINE AP

I don't know, I just pushed the button on one for a couple seconds, and it started flashing orange, then I did the same on the other and it worked. I did have ethernet plugged into one of them, so it could be that there's some sort of a sequence you have to go through and I just happened to get it

Re: [AFMUG] Mikrotik PWR-LINE AP

I wonder what I was doing wrong with the sync buttons. Do you have to pay attention to which one you power up first, or having a live Ethernet connection or something? I would push the button at each end for 2 seconds, the orange lights would flash for a couple minutes, but no pairing. It

Re: [AFMUG] Mikrotik PWR-LINE AP

I ran a TCP test from the one on the far end back to a different Mikrotik router, and got around 60Mbps (I only tried one direction). I just used the sync button to get two of them to connect together, and it seemed to work alright, but that seems like it would be way too easy for customers to

Re: [AFMUG] mtow suitable?

If it’s literally just a Nanostation AC (we use the Locos which are even smaller), we typically use what we call a “Zirkel mount” because it comes from Zirkel Wireless. Not sure if a...@zirkel.us is still the right contact. I think they were around $15 each in 50 qty

Re: [AFMUG] Mikrotik PWR-LINE AP

OK, based on my bench testing (actually in my house), I recommend not trying to use the Sync button to pair them, especially if you anticipate having more than 2 of them. I had nothing but frustration that way. Log in via the WiFi or Ethernet interface, you can use Winbox to find neighbors

Right, if the complaint is "I don't like what Steve is selling, and Steve told me not to buy it" then that isn't going anywhere. A LEC has some minimum service commitments to meet so that could be a whole different thing. On 2/22/2019 4:56 PM, Lewis Bergman wrote: I wouldn't think they have

I'm looking for something like the mtow but for wall mounting a cpe. It needs to be pretty low profile as it is in a breeze way and they want it as close to the wall as possible and invisible as possible. It will be use to mount a Nanostation AC. Chuck, do you have a low profile one or is there

Re: [AFMUG] Consumer FCC complaint

Informal or formal complaint? Informal complaint basically the FCC forwards to the ISP who sends a response to the customer with a copy to the FCC at which point the FCC feels their job is done. So if you have already sent them a response, a complaint may just get them another copy of it.
