Some IDIOT that was in my enclosure bumped the power supply and 
unplugged the AP.  The idiot was me.

That will do it every time...

I forgot to plug in the sync cable once, at the top of the tower.

Brian, My first access point went up in July of 04.   I had never put a
WRAP
board before, and I mistook which was radio 1 and radio 2.

Anyway, I managed to hook the 2.4 ghz AP to the 5 ghz dish and the 5 ghz
radio to the 2.4 sector...

Well, we had no trouble at all hooking up to the AP while standing at
the
building.   Or, anywhere around it.

But, the 5 ghz backhaul would NOT hook up.   The AP could not be seen at
1.2
miles, even with a 16 db antenna.

I fought with that thing for 2 days, on and off.  It was incredibly hot
and
going up there in the middle of the wheat field was unbearable, so I
worked
at it at night.   Anyway,  I started work on it near sunset, checked
everything out again, clear down to changing all the radios and
pigtails,
and giving up,  I went to the other end of the backhaul, nine miles
away.
I did some fiddling with the AP while I was there then giving up and
deciding to snoop around instead, I then decided to survey using the
utility
for the PC card.  Suddenly, the SSID for the other AP showed, and I
connected, using a 14 db panel.Even through that 5 ghz grid, I had a
pretty decent signal at 2.4 at 9 miles.

It was about 3:30 AM.   I drove to the other site, switched the antenna
cables, and VIOLA!  I had a fully functional net access site :)   I was
so
jazzed, I drove around checking coverage for another hour, and then got
home
in time for breakfast.

I was happy to tell the partner I had fixed it.   It was terribly
ego-bruising to admit how stupid of a mistake it was and how I had
simply
not caught on for 2 days

Needless to say, I suddenly decided to wise up and check things out and
be
sure of assumptions I make from then on...
