My longest oversea link still gets a lot of drops coursed of synchronization timeout. The solution with changing authentication method works exellent on all other links, but this one is for sure suffering of reflections from calm sea. According to the Rx log it seems for me that the signal is being completely phased out in spesific conditions, and the Dude log don’t register it (only a few milliseconds)
Maybe this problem belongs to another thread?
The Rx levels are jumping 20 dB, and I’m not shure exactly why. The Rx rate is stable on 300 Mbps, so it shouldn’t be coursed by running the tx-mode as default. One big problem might be the 29 dB duopol with one vertical polarization which I believe is far more sensitive for sea reflections than the horizontal. I’ve been working with antennas in my whole lifetime and a often successful solution is to “hide” the sea, but this isn’t easy to do in this installation.
Another problem might be the received level sometimes close to -30 dBm. The spesifications of the R52Hn does not tell anything about maximum input levels, but for me -30 dBm is a very high input level compared to my other links.
I’m a little stuck here since the link is live, and I do not want to disturb it too much. Any ideas??
