[WISPA] Flaky connection
I have a new customer that is giving us fits. AP and CPE are both RouterOS with SR9. 11 Clients on the AP, this is the only one with problems. I checked it several times today and it was running signal strength -65 both ways and CCQ was always above 90, often saw 100. Customer said the performance was great. I called at dusk to say it quit working. It did not work over night last night, either. It will now connect with signals in the mid-60s and CCQ in the 70s. Never stays linked more than 15 seconds. Takes about 2 seconds for it to come back. The rest of the client radios are staying connected just fine. Signals from -56 to -72. CCQs are all 75+ when there is traffic on the link. Any suggestions? -- Scott Reed Owner NewWays Networking, LLC Wireless Networking Network Design, Installation and Administration Mikrotik Advanced Certified www.nwwnet.net (765) 855-1060 WISPA Wants You!

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
Josh hit the nail on the head... See what else in going on @ the CPE. Also - have you folks started using MTR instead of ping? MTR is like a traceroute on steroids In short - it combines the functionality of the traceroute tool and ping application together :-) It shows you packet loss across the path in real time very simple to use - but a command line tool mtr ip ie mtr 192.168.134.2 http://www.bitwizard.nl/mtr/ On Dec 18, 2010, at 6:36 PM, Josh Luthman wrote: Ping across, see if it works all the time.

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
917 and 922 same results. Nothing else on 900, except another one of our towers. No confict. Noise floor high 90s or better. Yeah, I wondered about a 900MHz phone, but it works during the day and not an night. On 12/18/2010 6:35 PM, Leon D.

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
I have used that, but not here. It is not an IP issue, the radios drop association due to excessive errors, per the CPE. I have never seen the AP drop the link in the log.

Make sure the client radio is getting enough voltage? I have seen similar things happen that were fixed with a higher voltage/amperage power supply.

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
I have xr9 cards that just suddenly keep dropping. Replacing them seems to fix it. One way to tell... force the card to use only the lowest modulation level for Tx. If card then stays associated, then very likely card bad... This works on the xr9... Not completely sure the sr9 responds the same way, but may be worth a try...

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
I can certainly give them a different power supply. We use PACWireless 24 volt supplies almost exclusively and this is the only one with an issue, but could be bad power. Cable is only about 30'. The only other thing that may be different is installer did this one when it was about 10*. Might need to recrimp the CPE end.

AP and CPE are both RouterOS with SR9. 11 Clients on the AP, this is the only one with problems. I checked it several times today and it was running signal strength -65 both ways and CCQ was always above 90, often saw 100. Customer said the performance was great. I called at dusk to say it quit working. It did not work over night last night, either. It will now connect with signals in the mid-60s and CCQ in the 70s. Never stays linked more than 15 seconds. Takes about 2 seconds for it to come back. The rest of the client radios are staying connected just fine. Signals from -56 to -72. CCQs are all 75+ when there is traffic on the link.

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
Second RB and SR9, same symptoms. I will try the modulation rates when it comes back stable or I can get to the customer site. On 12/18/2010 8:58 PM, Blair Davis wrote: I have xr9 cards that just suddenly keep dropping. Replacing them seems to fix it. One way to tell... force the card to use only the lowest modulation level for Tx. If card then stays associated, then very likely card bad... This works on the xr9... Not completely sure the sr9 responds the same way, but may be worth a try... On 12/18/2010 8:50 PM, John Vogel wrote: Make sure the client radio is getting enough voltage? I have seen similar things happen that were fixed with a higher voltage/amperage power supply. Does this install have a long cable run or anything different than the others that might affect the input power? --John On 12/18/2010 7:46 PM, Scott Reed wrote: I see the association go away not matter what else is going on.

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
No. That is a good idea. I will try that when I can get into the client again. On 12/18/2010 9:34 PM, Philip Dorr wrote: Have you tried changing the hardware retries for the client?

Re: [WISPA] Flaky connection
Havent tried that. I've used pathping. Are they simular? On Sat, Dec 18, 2010 at 7:57 PM, Glenn Kelley gl...@hostmedic.com wrote: Josh hit the nail on the head... See what else in going on @ the CPE. Also - have you folks started using MTR instead of ping? MTR is like a traceroute on steroids In short - it combines the functionality of the traceroute tool and ping application together :-) It shows you packet loss across the path in real time very simple to use - but a command line tool mtr ip ie mtr 192.168.134.2 http://www.bitwizard.nl/mtr/ On Dec 18, 2010, at 6:36 PM, Josh Luthman wrote: Ping across, see if it works all the time.
