Hi guys and gals, Just seeing if anyone has any advise when mounting more than 1 antenna in the same frequency range on a tower. We have just installed a 5.8GHz 120” vert sector at about 47m. Already on the same side of the tower @ 42m is a 2 foot vert dish also running 5.8GHz. Both

I have seen a similar thing. If you do a speed test using RouterOS built-in test try changing the packet size to 200-300. As far as I can tell, this is a truer representation of normal internet traffic and does drop the throughput considerably. M3P is a good way around this as it will aggregate al

Just as a rough guide, would it be likely that you could get half the rated throughput on the Orthogon units over 2k through very lite trees? The problem I have is that I haven't been able to complete a site survey but have been told that they had a link during last winter which dropped once leaves
