Hi Sam, A low RTS Threshold setting can be useful in areas where many client devices are associating with the access point, or in areas where the clients are far apart and can detect only the access point and not each other. Enter a setting ranging from 0 to 2346 bytes. The value is required to adjust to suit your environment especially when there is hidden node issue. Please see this white paper. http://www.80211-planet.com/tutorials/article.php/1445641
A higher value dbi antenna will definitely increase the RF signal level more. With the current setup, what is the LQ and RSSI value at the CPE?. If you are getting almost 90% of LQ and RSSI level, then the reception is better.

Also, I have two APPOs that I'm using to backhaul about 60 clients through. The APPOs are about 2.2 miles apart, clear line of sight. I am currently using 18dB flat panel antennas. Some customers seem to think they are running slower than they should be. Would going to 24 dB parabolic grids be overkill on this short of a link? Also, how many clients can I reasonably backhaul through that link?
