Hello. Thought I share this with the list.
I have a friend that is using MT as ap on one of his towers with his radios in 10MHz and on another tower bullets with sector panels, similar set up on both towers except for the radios. He was explaining that he finds the bullets outperforms the ubiquiti radios on the MT by far. His explanation: "The reason why bullets outperfoms the radios intalled on a router board is because of the pigtail used from the radio to the antenna. This pigtail works like a electricity cable in that the thicker the cable the more current is able to pass through so, the mikrotik pigtails are way too thin. When there is a certain number of clients connected to that radio the pigtail saturates the radio traffic because of the 'high traffic or current passing through the pigtail' and as a result; links between clients and ap can be slow and performance decreases. Now, the bullets do not have any pigtail or other connector and thats a reason why links with bullets are more stable and performs better than having a routerboard and radios with pigtails." What you guys think of his logic? Note: Posted this on dslreports wisp mainling list as well so, for those also registered to that list: sorry for the double posts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
