MikroTik

frontiersteve

Mikrotik will top out at 6.1GHz using superchannel on some 5GHz cards. Not sure how legal it would be to use this though.

frontiersteve

I've considered doing this as well. Could you post photos of the setup.

frontiersteve

How many users?

frontiersteve

Do you have another radio/enclosure in mind?

frontiersteve

Even then it's a free sample! What do you have to lose? I guess there could be a time bomb hidden inside.

frontiersteve

Here is another one to add to the list. Same manufacturers as the Stationbox, but the case looks a little tidier.

They are offering free samples at the moment.

Ok, I must know what was the hardware used to achieve the 100+ Mbs TCP full duplex Wireless N link shown during the introduction for ROS v5. Had to at least been a board with GigE nics. What kind of processor? Standard routerboard? What kind of wireless card?

frontiersteve

Has anyone had any experience using these enclosure/antennas:WX572003 from wispmax? Seems like another option for mimo client antenna.

frontiersteve

Sheesh!

frontiersteve

I get a parse error when trying to export to Google earth. Any suggestions?

frontiersteve

If they do, a product similar to this http://www.rfelements.com/StationBox-5G ... tenna.html would be decent starting point.

frontiersteve

I agree, I like mikrotik as well. Cooperation would be splendid. On different note, I changed over my 802.11n wds ptp link to nv2, and lost remote connectivity. I switch it back and everything goes back to normal. I think this might be due to it not supporting wds in this mode. Does anyone know a qu...

frontiersteve

Any suggestions for when you have a mikrotik cpe and a different manufacturer for the ap?

frontiersteve

For what it is worth you may be able to get away with one minipci and one minipci-e active at the same time.

frontiersteve

Just curious. What are the max pps people are seeing with various boards. i.e. 411ah, 433ah, 600, 800. Just want to see how the cpu power and ram impact the ability of these types of connections pump out the packets. I gather that on a solid link one could see 90 to even 100 mb/s tcp using the board...

frontiersteve

Any news on the release of this product? I also remember Normis hinting at a sweet rb750 type board. possible built in 802.11a/b/g/n radio, mmcx, gige, low cost. It would be nice to have something like this to pop in an enclosure and...voila!, powerful client.

frontiersteve

I would like to comment on this latest release. I have been fairly impressed with what 4.10 has done for my pair of 802.11n nstream ptp links. I also have recently deployed a 5GHz sector and am running v4.10 with 5 clients and counting with good quality, throughput etc.. On the other hand I have a t...

frontiersteve

Second that.

frontiersteve

I wish there was a cheap antenna for MIMO which I could use with RB411 and R52N/R52Hn for clients. Maybe the results would be better then.

For 5Ghz there is this from arc wireless that isn't too bad on cost.http://www.streakwave.com/Itemdesc.asp? ... 88&eq=&Tp=

frontiersteve

Was anyone able to open the attachments on the earlier post?

frontiersteve

Maybe you should try it Non Nstream with the new beta 5.02 as there are supposedly some improvements in it for ptp.

frontiersteve

give these a try: http://ubnt.com/8023af

frontiersteve

with 802.11n you are apparently much better off using an mpls/vpls tunnel as opposed to wds. I am curious what kind of results you get as you are using rb 600s. I am wondering if my own bandwidth limitations I am seeing is not because of the fact that I am using 411AH boards.

frontiersteve

We just installed a customer literally a stones throw from the tower. In order to get the tx ccq to stabilize around 90% we had to limit the the data rates down to 24. The tower only has 2 customers on it so far, the noise floor is -101, the signal on tx/rx is 54/55. Is that normal? Is a lower trans...

frontiersteve

What is the typical tx ccq seen on a nstreme pmp link? Is anyone able to consistently run all supported rates on a client and still get a good ccq?

frontiersteve

So I have 2 RB411AH w/r52Hn connected on the bench. Using the the bandwidth test from each device I can achieve 45-50 Mbit/s fdx tcp, and about 90-100 Mbit/s fdx udp. When I put a pc on each and and run jperf i can only achieve roughly 30 Mbit/s Hdx tcp. Anyone else seeing these sort of things?

frontiersteve

Ahhh. Gotcha. I'm guessing you had all the ht supported mcs checked?

frontiersteve

I’ve read a lot of negative comments on the R52N cards but I actually managed to configure it to work. It is a 7km link with link connection of rx243mb/tx243mb. It fluctuates a bit between 160mb-243mb but I’m completely happy with it and impressed. The voice applications are also working 100% with ...

frontiersteve

Same problem here. Any answers yet?

frontiersteve

This may not be the place to make a board suggestion, but it would be nice to have a gigE port option on 400 series routers for the 802.11n that is now supported.

frontiersteve

Thank you so much for your reply. I tried that and it works great for ip addresses. But, I find it does not work for me, I may be doing something wrong, when I search for the label fields i.e. the customers name. It did work on a few where the custom fields had the persons name manually entered, but...

frontiersteve

Maybe, It would be very helpful for me from an isp standpoint. Say Joe blow calls in and says his service is down, and all cpes are nicely divided up on different submaps according to which tower they are connecting to. Instead of having to search each submap separately one could search all at once,...

frontiersteve

Does anyone know how to use the search feature to find device that might be on any number of submaps? ; search between the maps.

frontiersteve

Thanx.

frontiersteve

Anyone know the max pps/throughput of the new 450g? Seems like it should be somewhere between a RB 1000 and a 493AH.

frontiersteve

"If you use the AP to backhaul 7 Microcells/Repeaters each serving 30 CPEs - then you have 210 customers on that 20 Mbps AP capacity - still giving you close to 1 Mbps service pr customer on same congestion ratio. 4-5 of these setup, and you can hit 1000 customers on the setup." Are these ...

frontiersteve

Why have the switch at all? I ask this as I am dealing with a similar issue that I have been unable to resolve yet. I have a RB 111/112 that I have tried to upgrade via NetInstall and it sees it just fine, but the upgrade doesn't begin.
