Re: As we would like to evolve the wireless

Mon Nov 25, 2013 7:36 pm

MT.

There are now several companies that are using 802.11 based chip with sync and what appears to have a better protocol then nv2 is right now. I have found a small company that has seems to have mastered the issues (although I have not tested) and does not begin with M or C... you should seriously consider Leveraging this technology via cooperation or licensing agreement. Be Glad to share with you as I would be VERY surprised if you have heard of them. Unfortunately the product are not available In Europe or North America at this time.

Dear Mikrotik, another 5 months have passed... :(
Have you start to develop some of the many changes required?

I don't know others, but wireless market of Wisp is ever expanding and increasingly, better tools are needed in order to compete against "enemies".

Please give me good news

After a while some changes have been made:
Software
1 - Spectral Scan allow to save a file on the RB but they are working for a viewer to see this proprietary file http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php ... 36#p423336
13 - Wireless Controller feature allows to centralize wireless network management and data processing. See http://goo.gl/wwYFqX ... Status: COMPLETE!
UPDATE 29/04/2014: Add the CAPsMAN feature http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:CAPsMAN
14 - Auto frequency feature added by mikrotik that select the best channel to use ... Status: COMPLETE!

Hardware
2 - A dual-pol cpe (like Sexant) 23dB panel like this http://www.cyberteam.pl/en/produkt/show ... Dual_/MMCX , but with the ability to see the LEDs array for alignment use ... Status: COMPLETE!
UPDATE 29/04/2014: QRT-5 is ready for use http://routerboard.com/RB911G-5HPnD-QRT If possibile we need a low cost (Level 3 + NO_Gigabit version for customer's use)

Hi

1) Surely 802.11r is must do for Mikrotik? In the tablet/education market, its a must, so you are losing all these sales to UBNT, Ruckus, HP and Cisco, because there is no fast roam support.
2) Support for mesh/WDS and CAPSman. You should simply set the AP once to join the WDS bridge. (you could also allow some sort of Virtual AP that gets opened with no security Access, and any unconfigured APs will by default try latch onto it, once on the network you can bring them onto the secure WDS network by sending the CAPSman settings to them as per normal. This would also make setup of WDS for dummies, and make the product very accessible to market (Seems like WDS is still beyond most people to actually setup, yet steps are simple and repetitive).


Any thoughts?

Not possible with current Atheros Chipset. You need a second Wireless chip like the nanostation ac (the 11n nanostation cant do it) or a chipset which can do this like Quantenna.
