Re: [AFMUG] Who cares if the network is down

Haven't had any problems with Chuck's outdoor SS units regarding weathering or rain. But the problem we have been having with them (specifically the GIGE-SS-HV since that's all we've used) is intermittent ethernet link. I'm 99.9% sure that it's because of the way the cables enter the box.

Re: [AFMUG] Who cares if the network is down

It's not our site. But we're going to recommend a surge suppressor at the panel. If they won't do it, then we'll buy the stuff and do it ourselves. One of those and a 20A double pole breaker under $100. I forget what we normally use, probably Square D. On 8/13/2016 8:58 PM, David Milholen

Thanks everyone for your feedback .. appreciate it… This guy has 2200 subs at the moment running under original AC and having lots of challenges ;) He’s on track with some expansion to hit 6000 by next spring so sounds like moving to AC2 will be one step in the right direction at least

AC2 was rubbish. There is now active development and it is on a good development path. I outgrew AC1 a couple of years ago. AC2 does a great job for my 1000+ devices. Jim Bouse Owner Brazos WiFi 979-985-5912 j...@brazoswifi.com Original message From: Paul Stewart

That being saidthe upgrade process from AC1 to AC2 left a lot to be desired. I followed many tutorials trying to get the database to transfer, but I lost it all. Had to rescan the network and add every device back in. If historical data in AC is important...be aware that you may lose it

Yeah, I had a Ubiquiti Rocket and some nanobridges on the same tower, albeit lower, that didn't skip a beat. I go to all of the trouble of running dedicated power and optical, only to have some cheap Ubiquiti stuff outlive it - makes you wonder. The surge on the Mimosa went through the SS and

The surge suppressors we have at that site are L-com/Hyperlinks. A couple were blown top and bottom. Another radio was only the top and another only the bottom. The 900 AP board wasn't burned up, but dead. Lost that port on the MikroTik. Both SS's on that were dead. I'm going to rebuild

I haven't put any on the SIAE's DC line as of yet. Strangely, the power supply appears to be fine, the radio is what got toasted. I'll probably be putting one inside now that the APC DC version is available. Again, the manufacturer does not recommend anything outside. Maybe I'm over-analyzing,
