The numbers go up slightly as more users are one
but not by much I have on average about 300-600 failed packets per week if I let
the APPOS run that long with out having to reset them..

Even though performance seems good with 10-12
users, do your statistics really look good? There is a lot of room for
retransmits of failed packets with 10-12 users but when retransmitting for
30?

I set up another WISP with the demarch stuff
and he has more users then me on his AP in the same area and it is working
100% better no lockups no disassociation problems etc.
going back to what I said earlier how can
interference be the issue when I have 10-12 users on the AP and it works
fine then I put the rest on and it goes to hell. If it were interference I
would stake my money that it would affect everyone no matter what.. if I had
1 user or 500 associated to the AP??

Now wait a minute. You just said it
"Just think this stuff is junk when it comes to handling lots of clients
in an area thats congested with other 802.11 traffic". If you are in
fact battling against other 802.11 systems then it is not at all
SmartBridges, it is the 802.11 protocol itself. It will not matter
what 802.11 vendor you use in that environment, you will see the same
problem and they will all be junk.

Different SSID no roaming Derek trust me I
have tried EVERY option that you and SB has given me there is nothing
that I have not tried..
It progressively gets worse as I add more
clients.
1. I change the ssid on the APS to
something different and change like 10 or less customers CPE to match
and the problem GOES AWAY!!!!!!!
Tell me that is not an issue with how much
capacity the APPO can handle? I mean it sounds as though you all want to
lay claim just like SB that GEE it cant be their equipment? Have we not
all learned from the past that it has most the time been a issue with
the equipment Just think this stuff is junk when it comes to handling
lots of clients in an area thats congested with other 802.11 traffic and
it just plain and simple cant handle it. I am sure if SB would have
taken our suggestions almost 5 months ago so send someone out to
investigate they would learn a allot of how and what affects their
products!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So, you are using different SSID's?
Are you set for roaming on the clients?

No different SSIDS and different
channels ones is on 4 one was on 7 and they have been working fine.
They were even working fine both on chan 3 so channel is NOT the
issue. Everyone is trying to read more into this then what I believe
to be the problem LESS users system is great MORE users system is
crap

What antennas and channels are you
using? Same SSID's on both AP's?

Power is not an issue how can power
be an issue when the power strip is 2 inches away from the
radio. The radios has LMR 400 jumper going to a amp power supply
then 50ft of LMR 400 going to the amp at the ant then from the
amp to the ant..
And YES I have tried the system
without any amps and basically I get 1 5 users
associated.

The toehr thing, as it was
mentioned in a differnet reply earlier, are you using 18VDC
power supplies? Are the AP's lacking the power they
need?

We give up!
We cant add any more users to
our system total of 60 split between 2 APPO's 30 each at
max. We added 2 more today and now we have hardly any users
downloading and best we can do is about 300KBPS down... This
SUCKS! is it possibly due to all the smoke in the air which
I would find hard to believe BUT you never
know.
What's the deal with the XO
stuff is it done it sure could be nice to have one to test
and see if it is worth $900.. I am very frustrated at not
being able to figure this out. It all points back to the
radios (APPO's) not being able to process all the associated
radios to it? I change the SSID so only a few people
10-12 can associate to the APPO and there is NO pro
problems. I allow all the users to associate to the APPO and
WHAM crap city throughput goes to hell pings skyrocket just
with one user surfing on and off.. how can this NOT point to
the radios inability to keep up? Why would just idle radios
associated to the APPO have such a bad effect on the
APPO?
I have 6 users ready to cancel
due to the crappy service I am getting from these radios I
don't understand how someone else claims 60 plus users on
ONE APPO and they are fine? what speeds are you offering
what are your settings on the APPO and the clients
associated to it. What ant are you using? any amps etc
etc..
