Hi all,
in our point-to-point links, we have always used one single radio per
routerboard and that worked nicely.
Obviously using 2 radios in the same RB (e.g. RB433) is not a bad idea,
the cost is lower, but I was wondering if this can lead to some
interference considering that the radios could
There was a discussion here not to long ago about interference with using two
radios in one rb. As I recall there is interference but someone had a solution.
I am sure someone will chime in or you could check the archive.

Why not use N radios? If you don't like UBNT Rockets, then look at
Mikrotik 411s with Baltic Networks' Ubitik device. You can buy the UBNT
dual-polarity dishes, but use Mikrotiks on them.

This looks a lot like multipath.
What size grid are you using? For only 3 miles a small 15 dB or less panel
should be more than enough.
Try moving the end up or down, sometimes by only a couple of feet.

You need to see what is going through your network from that AP. My
suggestion is to get a packet sniffer set up between the AP and the
Backhaul. You want to narrow the scope of your search with regards to the

That's an awful lot of clients on that one AP. If all your CPEs are in bridge

Log into 5 customer radios.
Change secondary SSID on the CPE to something different from your APs SSID.
Change your AP SSID to match this new one.
Do this a few times until you find the problem client(s).
50 clients is A LOT for a TR902F.

I would say you are overloading the AP. Probably caused by a client
sending a bunch of junk packets and overloading it. What is the
modulation speed that your clients are connecting at? I would try
disabling the clients that are running 1mbs, see if that helps.
Chris
It sounds like you are focusing in on a radio problem but you have ignored
the possibility of a traffic-related problem. You need to recognize that in
a non-polling or a dynamic-polling environment, the upstream traffic from
your clients will have an impact on the performance of your network and

Don't know if this is possible at your site, but can you add a second AP? Just
switch polarity, channels and try to separate the antenna by 10'+
Then start moving clients over until you have them ~50/50.
Good luck.
