Re: [WISPA] [Ubnt_users] NS5 issues?
Quick note... v5.3-beta5.7493 solved all our uptime reliability problems. Prior to that, we still had links with occasional disconnects. OSPF session would drop because the CPE stopped passing traffic for a short period. In our case it was a PTMP backbone link using TDMA and Station WDS, with one AP and two CPE, and only 1 CPE demonstrated the problem. Because of it, we were hesitant to use the Rockets on critical backbones. But Rockets have been working beautifully for us, since the above listed upgrade. As far as I was concerned, v5.3-beta5.7493 was good enough for release, I was pleased.. I'm assuming non-beta 5.3 firmware 7782 is as good or better :-) The only thing that is still on our radar as a concern, is that on one or two links, embedded bandwidth test show mismatched speeds in Bi-directional test. For example, down only is 25mb, up only is 25 mb, but with up and down test the down might be 15mb and the up 2mbps. This only occurs with some links. MOst of the links when tested with Bi-directional tests will have the up/down speeds real close for example 12mb down and 12 mb up for a link with 25mb of capacity. We are searching for the reason why some of the links, show disimlar updown speed in bi-directional tests. Same firmware used on all radios, and we have both Rockets and Nano, that show either condition. Its hard to understand why a single direction radio test tests 25mbps up but only deliver 2mb up when in a bi-directional test. Finally what we did was speed limit the radio in the fast direction, to reserve bandwdith for the other. We believe this must have something to do with noise, and protocol traits that allow the best operating direction to gain access to radio to request transmission quicker and more often than the other, thus consuming the bandwidth. Is anyone else noticing that?

Be aware that the xmas firmware was not compatible (at least for me) with radios running 5.3f7782!
