Well thats good news, at least it might be possible. The SXT can hear the Cisco router, and reports -75dB (almost no noise... -119dB if memory serves). I can connect with a 14dBi (advertised) PremierTek usb antenna that is basically a piece of junk, but I only get 6Mbps symmetric on speed tests, I'm looking for better. Bandwidth on the other side is basically unlimited, so I'd like the best connection possible (I can't test beyond 1Gbps, but it easily maxed that out). Interestingly the STX reports everything as being 20MHz channel width, even when I turned on an a spare Netgear router and set it to 40MHz to test. It's worth noting that -75 was an initial test sitting on a window sill - I'm certain proper mounting / aiming will yield a much stronger signal.
I'm also pretty sure the issue lies in my configuration, as I have never used RouterOS. I can see where I would enter a shared secret to connect to another WPA AP, but can't find anywhere that I would enter a username / password required for WPA2 Enterprise.
