Hi,

Before 10 days I bought RouterBOARD RB 433AH and 3 Wireless PCI cards on it. One R52, one R52H and one R5H for link to other routerboard. I have and Linksys routers and they have very high signal. R52 card is 4 times lower than linksys, and r52h is 2 times lower than linksys. I have 19 dbi sector antenna and 15 dbi omni antenna. What is problem?

Here is configuration:

Flags: X - disabled, R - running
0 name="wlan1" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0C:xx:xx:xx arp=enabled
interface-type=Atheros AR5413 mode=bridge ssid="XXXXLink"

wds-mode=dynamic wds-default-bridge=bridge1 wds-ignore-ssid=no
default-authentication=yes default-forwarding=yes default-ap-tx-limit=0
default-client-tx-limit=0 hide-ssid=no security-profile=default

1 X name="wlan2" mtu=1500 mac-address=00:0C:42:xx:xx:xx arp=enabled

Thank you.

there doesnt seem to be anything wrong with your configuration, if you want more power maybe try ubiquiti.

You might want to check out your countries EIRP restriction as the cards you have there with those antennas are putting out pretty high levels already.
