WHOA….454 Kb email.   Tisk*tisk   (-;   I thought I understood all this a long time ago….now this latest email has me second guessing myself.   1. Do you have to manually set the preamble in all CPE equipment or not???  2. If you change the preamble on the aP from long to short, will the CPE (all sB equipment) reconfigure automatically or not??   A simple yes or no on these questions will suffice.  Explanations seem to muddy the waters.   Thanks!   Sully   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Alex Wong Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 1:31 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Preamble, and my $3000.00 mistake   Bottom-line, you must set the same on both. If you change the preamble on the AP, the CPE(airBridge series) will detect the setting automatically set to match the preamble on the AP. However, pls check the link status on the airBridge to confirm as per diagram here: Below airBridge is assoicated to the AP with Short Preamble Alex sB Tech Support -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Sam Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2003 4:40 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [smartBridges] Preamble, and my $3000.00 mistake On Tue, 10 Jun 2003, Alex Wong wrote: > Both devices AP & CPE should use the same preamble.

So, as clarification, if I'm using Smartbridge CPE (Airbridge, Airbridge Outdoor), the preamble on the AP should be set to long, correct? Would setting the preamble to short on the AP radio be expected to cause very poor behavior on the part of Airbridges at the customer's location (as I experienced), or should the Airbridge automatically detect the short preamble and set itself accordingly?  Because if that's how it's supposed to work, it doesn't. At least not for me.  :) Sam The PART-15.ORG smartBridges Discussion List To Join: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type subscribe smartBridges <yournickname> To Remove: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type unsubscribe smartBridges) Archives: http://198.63.203.6
