It's been running six months without a dropped packet. Cable run is ~100
feet, maybe a little less. We were powering it over the data port, but we
switched to the management port today. We checked the power output on the
PS, and with the power supply plugged into the power injector, but the radio
not actually working, we got -47.8v. That makes me think it is unlikely to
be an actual power supply issue.
I'm starting to wonder if it is heat related somehow. The problem
started at around 10:00am today, and now that it's nearing six and cooling
down, the link came back up and started working fine. I can't think what
else it would be related to... maybe the power injector doesn't like it when
it gets warm? I have a new power injector coming from Trango -- I'm thinking
maybe the current power injector has a bad component that doesn't react well
to heat.
