Thanks for your comments Marlon, we have the power output level turned down on the AP to stay below the limit. As the closest client is 5-miles I don't believe the narrow beamwidth (6.5 deg) is the issue. Also, we are transmitting across a valley and the elevation of the AP and the clients are about the same.
