Your partially right Tower is only 65 foot, but difficult to get to in good 
weather using a quad, and it has been raining all day. No one want to climb a 
tower in the rain. I have changed channel and it seems to be stable. I hope!

  Did it rain recently? We had a similar problem where the antenna was not

few hours of sun shining on the system they'd be fine until the next heavy rain 
storm. The thing that threw us off was that light or normal rain that didn't

[WISPA] Internet Censorship bill dead... for now. (DNS Nazis)

[Marco Coelho]

http://yro.slashdot.org/story/10/11/20/1437259/Oregon-Senator-Stops-Internet-Censorship-Bill

I'm really surprised a Democrat was the killer of this bill I thought
the lawyers, movie, and music industry owned them...

Maybe they missed a payment?

(no flames required  both sides are beholding, I just launched on one of
them this time).

Re: [WISPA] Dropping Clients

[~NGL~]

Noise was the same as it always is 91 - 94 range, and is the same this morning.

We had some light rain yesterday started about noon, and rained on and off, the 
same thing this morning.
We had some very hard rain and strong winds the end of October, and encountered 
no problems.
I am going to try switching channels with another AP on that tower .

  Did it rain recently? We had a similar problem where the antenna was not 
sealed tight and everytime it rained hard clients would drop off, but after a 
few hours of sun shining on the system they'd be fine until the next heavy rain 
storm. The thing that threw us off was that light or normal rain that didn't 
last long didn't seem to affect the antenna, only heavy rain with maybe some 
wind thrown in the mix. 

  Then on a different note, we've recently been battling an issue where on one 
of our 5GH systems clients were all dropping off at very random times...Turn 
out damn BAE systems down the road was testing frequency hopping radar crap and 
every time it hopped into the frequency we were using, the clients dropped off.

  Put a power meter between the AP radio and the antenna and make sure the 
radio is putting out the power it should.  Also check the SWR, should be about 
1.3/5.  I would guess that the clients being dropped are the ones furthest 
away, if the AP is losing power or the antenna is wet or damaged and losing

Re: [WISPA] Dropping Clients

[Bret Clark]

Did it rain recently? We had a similar problem where the antenna was
not sealed tight and everytime it rained hard clients would drop off,
but after a few hours of sun shining on the system they'd be fine until
the next heavy rain storm. The thing that threw us off was that light
or normal rain that didn't last long didn't seem to affect the antenna,
only heavy rain with maybe some wind thrown in the mix. 

Then on a different note, we've recently been battling an issue where
on one of our 5GH systems clients were all dropping off at very random
times...Turn out damn BAE systems down the road was testing frequency
hopping radar crap and every time it hopped into the frequency we were
using, the clients dropped off.

  The AP is a TR-902 11f which has an
internal antenna.
  The clients that were were dropped
were a mix of nearest and furthest from the AP.

Put a power meter between the AP radio and the antenna and make sure
the radio is putting out the power it should.  Also check the SWR,
should be about 1.3/5.  I would guess that the clients being dropped
are the ones furthest away, if the AP is losing power or the antenna is
wet or damaged and losing signal.
