You can look for omnis with downtilt built in as well if you must go with
higher gain and must use an omni.

Marlon,
I was thinking about what you said about high gain omni antennas sending
more signal UP. With respect to direction, what's the difference between
between a high gain unit and a lower gain unit?
you'll point the antenna straight at the tower's antenna
anyway. At the tower though, you need to cover MUCH more area, both from
side to side AND up and down.
That help?

A spectrum analyzer is a good idea. I tried and wasnt impressed with wi-spy.
Is there anything else inexpensive that will analyze the spectrum?
Thanks!

Never assume a problem is ever interference no matter how rural you are. This
is one of the biggest problem I see people are doing.

I have seen it occationally on this tower and others but this one is really
bad. I'm planning on replacing the WRAP with a WAR or Mikrotik. Hopefully
that helps.

I agree with you and actually intend on replacing it. But, I doubt it's
related since this setup has been running on this particular tower since
2004 (I bought the company this way). Also, it is set up on several others
with no issues. I failed to mention these towers are in very rural locations
so
Rick, we have had a problem with a couple of StarOS APs where all the
associations stop passing data. You reboot (maybe a couple times) and it
comes back as normal. We originally thought it was a problem with the
hardware, then we replaced all the hardware (the site had original WAR4 with
SR9
Not sure if it's related or not, but high gain omni antennas are usually a
great big no no. They tend to send more signal UP than in the direction of
the customers.
I'd replace it with an 8 or 9 db unit just on principal. You'll probably
find that most customers will actually get a BETTER sig
