The glass is low-e, double pane, argon filled, the antenna sits a 45 degree angle to the glass. There are no roofs for at least 15 feet under either antenna mount.

SOLVED- The side in the attic sits pointing out a window. When I open the window, signal is restored. NOT A HEAT ISSUE! I hooked a laptop to it and set it to ping the other side of the bridge, when I open the window, I instantly get a response. In fact having the window partially open but blocking the antenna - no signal. I'm sure this is not the AP overheating, opening the window works instantly - like tuning on a light switch.

I know of all the bad luck people have with WAP11s and reliability, this is not that problem. The link is always up at night capable of a reliable 5Mbps transfer. It's always down when it's (I don't know the exact temp) 75 degrees. And I've never intervened or restarted an AP (any time I use it at night, 8pm, 3am, 6am, its been good)

I have a simple WAP11 to WAP11 bridge between two houses (between .25 and
.5 miles apart) It worked great all winter, and still works at night. As
it warms outside, the signal goes from poor to useless.


While the link is down, both WAP11s are still functioning normally.

One side of the bridge is on a mast about 5 feet above the roofline, the
other I was forced to mount in the attic, so this bridge really "rides the
rooftops"


My question is: could the heat from all the rooftops between the houses
cause a temperature gradient that would distort the signal? If so, how
high over the roof until it wouldn't contribute? What else could cause
the bridge to loose signal on hot days if the access points are
functioning normally?
