Title: RE: [smartBridges] We've just about had it

I would say reflections. Change the omni’s to sectors as soon as you can. This will eliminate many potential problems. If you can get sectors soon enough, Try using flat panels for a short time. I have discovered that a 13dbm panel, 8 miles away from the AP receives the same signal strength even if you are off by 30* left or right and 15* up or down (with a clear LOS).   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 11:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] We've just about had it   It could be the omni's or it could be upload traffic. Do you have a lot of upload traffic from your subs?   ----- Original Message ----- From: phantam To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 9:17 AM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] We've just about had it   All I can say is keep goin SB, they have been here for us since we started using them just this AB freezing problem that supposedly the other atmel users have fixed so maybe it's the same problem who knows. But besides that the AB's are working perfect except for a freeze every so often sporadically. What my problem now is I have like 75 people pointed to 3 APPO's on 1 tower all different channels all omni (I know bad choice im switching them to all sector's soon) but recently in the last 3 days I am seeing EXTREMELY heavy packetloss on all the radio's but not my ATM 5.8ghz network that comes through this repeater as well. So my question is , NO THIS IS NOT A SB PROBLEM as far as I can tell because ei tried restarting them all. What could cause this all of a sudden, adding toomany customers right now the numbers are 19,25,28 (it goes up cause some people turn there teletronics off during the night for whatever reason there weird) or noise or interference or what I'm just now sure. A GSM tower went up about 200' infront of our tower we're at top of the hill (600' tall) and the tower I figured wasn't active didn't see any equipment but it DID go up around the same time as problems started.   Thanks guys, Chris -----Original Message----- From: Joe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Sunday, June 15, 2003 10:17 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]   For my full time job I do a lot of T1 circuits and we do a lot of crimping in the field, at every cell site we crimp our own and most demarcs are punch down blocks.         Joe      RiverNet -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Gary Garrett Sent: Saturday, June 14, 2003 6:13 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] We've just about had it   That is correct they do use an RJ-11 in Telco Demarc boxes outdoors, but bear in mind the Telco installers are never expected to crimp the plug on. It is factory installed and sealed where the wire meets the connector and only the pins are exposed to the humidity. When one of these things is suspected of being bad they toss it and a new Demarc box is installed. Expensive but idiot proof.
