Re: [Ubnt_users] Site Survey Tool
Which cell phone charger do you use? I haven't found one that will power both the Air Gateway Installer and a customer radio.

Re: [Ubnt_users] Site Survey Tool
I have had PowerBeam 5 AC with an AirGateway Installer crash when when doing the upload side of a speed test. I'm going to try it with another lithium battery to be sure that the problem isn't that the battery isn't supplying enough current. I just saw a device called mAP that serves pretty much the same purpose.

Re: [Ubnt_users] Site Survey Tool
I'm about to hang one of our IsoStation AC beta units (with a Milwaukee M18 battery) on an aluminum pole. The built-in 2.4 GHz admin radio paired UMobile seems almost like it was made for the job. The lack of sidelobes on the IsoStation is a big plus -- saw some errors using NanoBeams. As soon the 30° horns ship we'll swap in one of those.
