When switching between the two APPO, you said that one is H-Pol and one is V-Pol. Are you changing the other end of the link to match?

What were to happen if you were to use the same APPO and just switch antennas? The other thing to try may be while the new one is in re-allign the antenna on a client and see if that helps. The dial a power suggestion that was given in an earlier replay may be a good thing to try as well. -----Original Message----- From: Roger Howard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2003 1:24 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [smartBridges] Slow download speed It's plugged into the same switch as the other AP, so I don't think duplex is an issue. New AP has it's own IP address. I did assign it the same address as my FreeBSD/dummynet server for a while and had a conflict there, but I fixed that and re-booted the server and AP. If the ARP tables were screwed up, how would I fix that?
