Ken, First calculate the wind pressure from the antenna using something like http://www.wikihow.com/Calculate-Wind-Load. A wind load of ~25 lb for that antenna should be very conservative. Then sum the reactions (torques) at the base of the roof mount...the antenna imparts an overturning

Actually, in 2006 – 2008 when we were evaluating Wi-F vendors, we were moving away from 802.11g fat APs. We were looking mainly at 802.11a/b/g APs. Somebody internally who could help the project was sold on 802.11n so that is what we purchased. Needless to say, we have not regretted that

I agree fully! We are having serious internal delays getting our 802.11n Wave 1 APs replaced so we can keep on current code. ​ Bruce Osborne Wireless Engineer IT Network Oprations - Wireless (434) 592-4229 LIBERTY UNIVERSITY Training Champions for Christ since 1971 From: Peter P
