Wi-fi problem, unstable ping

Thu Feb 25, 2016 9:17 pm

What can it be, look at the screenshots, i can't use the internet by wi-fi. I tried to change Frequency (channel) and Tx Power but nothing helped. By wire it works good.

Hi,

many reasons may cause this problem , try different frequencies , antenna direction , check obstacles , and also try to find a free frequency because 2.4 Ghz is more common and has more busy channels than 5.8 Ghz

I've tried everything but my HapLite doesnt wrok properly. I created AP on my Windows10 PC with usb Wi-Fi and in the same room i had stable ping and connection so that is not problem with busy channels. Something wrong with Mikrotik, i need help.

Interference is obvious, but the stable pings are strange. What about to ping other than router's address? Do you use both chains? Do you use both guard intervals?

you need a spectrum analizer to discard interference problems

check datarates and CCQ of client connected to the hap

using the dude you can get some spectral analysis using the hap

As you can see all is blue and green so that is the problem inside the router. I still need help.

Hi,

Is the ap placed near a metal object or something that might be emitting electrical noise.

I had a client with the same issue, every second ping is bad.

Turned out he had some kind of wireless bridge for his IP camera was causing the issue.

For some reason the spectral scan did not detect it.

Hello,

I am having similar problem on RB951G-2Hnd.
Sometimes I having extraordinary big ping time 100 - 300ms and more and even timeouts for several minutes.
My spectral analysis is not so good as for joker002, but I am using channel 2462 green/blue zone.
My spectral history is attached

Btw, how do I choose better channel and is it good idea to set up auto channel?

I had a similar problem of instable ping and losses, and it was coming from the client.

Have you checked that there is no "energy save" parameter on the client wireless driver/parameter ?
