The thin pigtail decides the number of clients ? lol, more likely the signal loss in the pigtail causes low signal on clients causing all kinds of problems, making it look like it is caused by a certain number.
Depending on hardware used for the Tik box, it probably out performs the Bullet. Heck you could argue that the Bullet does have a pigtail, it's the solder point on the circuit board. ---------- Original Message ---------------------------------- From: Optimum Wireless Services <wil...@optimumwireless.com> Reply-To: wil...@optimumwireless.com, WISPA General List <wireless@wispa.org> Date: Mon, 14 Feb 2011 09:50:30 -0400 >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.
