We just setup a customer with a 60% RSSI and a 75% signal level. They are running way too slow, it won't even complete a speed test, and when it did it showed 90k upload. Any ideas?
Could this be narrowed down to the backhaul?

On most radios, like the Trango, they give you actual RSSI received. So, I would expect an almost unusable signal to have a reading of, say -90 to -100. Instead, it has a reading of -20 to -40. A received signal of -20 is an incredibly strong signal. How do I read these? Also, the signal strength bounces around a awful lot. At one point it may be 60% and without moving the antenna it will bounce down to 40%, and then a minute later it will be back to 60%. What gives?
