Look for a new AP in the area. Sudden changes normally indicate interference like this. Time to go War driving. Another way to start, change an AP over to CB mode in the middle of the night and see if it picks anything up or log in to a client radio and use it to scan for other APs.

In regard to my previous post in our issue.  We are using 10MB backhaul units to the hill top.

 

And we have 3 other similar hops from our NOC to other hilltops without this problem.  1 APPO per canopy on those sites however.

Is the Canopy AP/CPE being used solely for a backhaul?   If so, you would have been way better off using Canopys backhaul radios.  What is managing the sync timing on the Canopy's?  The AP is creating its own sync or what?   I have a multi-hop Canopy backhaul, 1 leg is 14 miles, the short leg is 3 miles, with a Cluster Management Module in the middle.  This unit has worked flawlessly for me, and I dont experience the 20ms latency at all.  I could produce the same statistics as below all day and all night long with this configuration.  A little more info?  Good luck.

Okay as you all know I have been having latency issues when one or two people get on pings go thru the roof 100-600ms..

 

We ran a test from my partners house on wireless. He faces are furthest tower which gets its backhaul from our main tower 8 miles away. This remote tower he faces has 3 clients on it right now and it has two APPO's one for backhaul (in client bridge mode) and the other in Access point mode.

 

So we set up a constant ping to each radio in the chain all the way to the main tower an noc.

 

1. Before starting the test we see <10 ms to main tower to the noc about 30 -40 ( all cause the automatic 20ms+ latency the Motorola adds)

 

2. We start a bandwidth test and every radio we ping stays at <10ms all the way to the main tower which is good!!!

 

3. Now here is where we see the problem we ping the radio at the tower that serves as the backhaul ( Motorola client unit) the pings go way up to over 500ms at times????

 

anyone have any ides? all three radios at the main tower are plugged into a dlink 5 port switch that has been working great so I thought. I have the Motorola unit forced at 10 meg 1/2 duplex. I tried setting it to full and 100 and no difference? I think I have found where the problem lies just not sure why?

 

Any help would be appreciated as to what else I can try??

 

Here is a link to a rough pic of what I have set up http://www.blazenwireless.com/system
