Groove vs Metal Omni Distance...

Tue May 31, 2016 8:53 pm

Hey,

Anyone give me an idea about what kind of distance I could expect to get if I were to use a pair of:
http://routerboard.com/RBGrooveGA-52HPacn

In 2.4 Ghz?... what about 5 Ghz?

How about with a pair of http://routerboard.com/RBMetalG-52SHPacn

In 2.4 Ghz?... what about 5 Ghz?


Just looking for a basic estimate for LOS outdoor with the Included Omni Antennas.

Of course, you specify the antenna gain. The type doesn't matter, as long as it's correctly pointed towards the other device.

Mobile devices themselves have poor range. You can set any type of AP you want, mobile device still will have same limits.
