This really comes down to OSPF settings on the link. Things like on RF failure drop Ethernet would help as well as if they had a min-modulation option (i.e. if I drop below this performance i.e. modulation), drop the link.

Also, this wouldn't switch over until the link completely died so do you do anything special to have OSPF handle this or do you have to wait for it to die? I can just see the link getting bad enough that it will send the smallest amount of data but not drop thus limiting the capacity to even less than a backup link in place. I remember chuck talking about something in the forums about dropping ethernet past a certain signal threshold or when RF link drops.

It has worked grrrreat and I fully expect it to drop off in a hard down poor like this. That's why we have 2 5GHz MT links to fall back on. I just thought it was cool to see everything working like it should. This happened tonight. You can see our TP weather station rainfall graph. The weather station is just down the hill from pinoak tower (no longer a real pinoak). The AF link drops off, the MT 5GHz link ramping up as the AF link drops and throughput on the drain pipe stays stable while all this was happening and no lost packets. There is also link path so you can see distance and actual signal of the link right now with just basically mist. You can almost graph the rainfall rate by the throughput on the MT backup link J Thx, Jim Patient Office: 314-735-0270 towercoverage.com <http://towercoverage.com/> linktechs.net <http://linktechs.net/> wlan1.com <http://wlan1.com/> _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless _______________________________________________ Wireless mailing list Wireless@wispa.org http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless
