One of those MetaGeek things screwed into your antenna would tell you a lot. You'd have to carry a laptop (netbook!) and (do this!) carry a USB extension cable.
If you are sending large packets to a local device with ping, and seeing loss, I would suspect the CAT5? Spare one up the tower? Can you pull a new one? Did you recrimp the ends? -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of RickG Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 7:09 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Ubiquiti Link - Poor Performance Loss is right, Big time! The Ubiquiti spectrum analysis shows low noise across all bands. I think its about the same as when it was installed but not 100% sure. I'm also not sure if its enough to cause the issue I'm experiencing. Going up to swap the AP now...will advise.
