Re: [WISPA] 5.8 GHz PtP - weaker RSLs
Is there anyone who is using anything other than Trango who sees this same issue? Scriv Mark Koskenmaki wrote: Im on the other end of the country - Oregon... I saw no changes in my 5 ghz stuff. Solar activity would have an impact here too, right? how long does the influence last?

While possible, there's one thing that just makes that sound really weird. We're using Trango gear as well, and (as Scriv mentioned) saw some similar problems last night... One of our Trango APs has two client SUs associated. Both links are about nine miles, but the endpoints are only about three miles apart, on the same state highway. Think of it as a V shape, where the AP is at the bottom of the V. And the V is actually pointing west-to-east. But whatever. One of those links went completely bananas, lost about 10dB of signal, dropped connection all over the place. The other didn't skip a beat. I have another, similar, link that did the same thing last night. One AP, three SUs. One went bonkers, the other two were things of beauty and perfection. Again, the endpoints are only a couple miles apart. [newbie mode ON!] Is solar flare activity really sufficiently random that this is plausible? With clients on the same frequency, and so relatively close together, I'd expect any really broad-scale interference to knock them all off at the same time, instead of just doing so randomly.

Since different people saw the same problem in multiple locations I would suspect a propagation problem, probably as a result of solar activity. Looking at this page shows some data http://www.n3kl.org/sun/noaa.html Thank You, Brian Webster -Original Message- From: John Scrivner [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2005 11:41 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] 5.8 GHz PtP - weaker RSLs We had some Trango weirdness overnight also. We had 3 different links go down at different times overnight but I do not have any specifics of why at this time. Where were you seeing this trouble? Scriv Jeff Mabry wrote: Good Morning, WISPA. We have witnessed a decrease in five (5) TrangoLink10 5.8 GHz PtPs Received Signal Levels overnight. These links are deployed in various geographic locations with an average 12 miles of separation between tower sites. These links have been active for at least a year (some longer). A decrease anywhere from 3 to 8 dB has been recorded in the RSLs with the exception of one (1) link which has had a 7 dB boost in signal. Weather this morning is about the same as yesterday’s weather. Clear and 72 degrees. Did anyone else see lower signals this morning? This is a weird issue to wake up to. Thank you for your support.

I think too many of you are keeping track of too many things! We build in a fade margin so that when this happens (as it naturally will) we can deal with it automatically.
