Grounding or water ingress. We have 100s of XR cards, both 900Mhxz, 2ghz and 5ghz in the air. I can't remember the last time we replaced a failed XR card that was actually bad that was not for water in the cable. On 10/17/2013 11:48 AM, Marlon Schafer (509.982.2181) wrote: > I see that a lot on

I see that a lot on the XR cards after storms in my area. Might be bad TX output or bad RX input numbers. I've changed a lot of cards this year because of a similar issue to yours. marlon -Original Message- From: Paolo Di Francesco Sent: Tuesday, October 15, 2013 10:54 AM To: wireles

on both sides we have ubiquiti we have various scenarios: ptp or ptmp example1: airgridm5 connected to rocketM5 access point, we saw that it went down 10db example2: airgridm5 not even connecting to the rocket (smoked radio? but it was new out of the box), on the same customers we put a mikrot

Do a little searching on the UBNT forums. There were a few batches of the AirGrid HP's that had this issue. I installed about ten of them. I then replaced 10 of them with grid/bullets and scrapped them. On Tuesday, October 15, 2013 1:55 PM, Paolo Di Francesco wrote: dear all lately we are
