hello everybody
good evening
one simple question ,i want to know the wireless card model no that is located on the tower.
and i want to know that model no by winbox.
plz tell me that how do i find out that???
plz
anybody know that???
not possible
thanks normis
actually before me one of the tower is installed with 433(three card) last year.
and now the customer base increasing ,so i want to install more powerful wireless card on it.
so i was asking to how could i know the wireless card model no.
can you tell me which wireless card will able to handle my 25 customer that is connected to my access point (2.4ghz).
again thanks for your reply 
25 simultaneous?? NONE
I have tried everything R52 to R52H to XR2 to alfa to compex to f20
You’re obviously doing something wrong.
25 up to 35 user per radio card is not a problem.
So with 3 cards serving up to 40 - 50 user is not an issue at all.
The power of the cards don’t have a direct relation to the numbers of clients it can serve. Power of the card is only related to the power of the signal that is been transmitted by the radio. Yes, if your new clients are further away and present power output of AP might not be enough than power increase of the radio could help.
But if your increasing user base is in roughly in the same range and section as your other stations there is no need to upgrade the cards.
If you think your routerboard managing the cards and the traffic is not capable of serving more clients you have to upgrade your board. It depends a bit on the data streams from and to the clients.
I use rb433’s for up to 35 users per board and my basic client subscription is 4/1Mbps.
But the original question of the topic is a good one. It has been asked before and it would make it very handy to ´see´ in the routerboard which mini-pci card is inserted. It would even be better if the ROS also tells me which slot it is in.
I never wrote it down so now indeed at times I have to climb a tower and open the box just to find out what card it has.
Sometimes it is also handy to know which card is actually in which slot.
MT, suggestion (again) for new ROS update or new 6.x family; mini-pci identification.
I have 25 users on my access-list. The board is 433ah and 1 mini pci r52H.
When number of active users is 10, sometimes I start experiencing problems.Clients r TPLINK 501G.
Out of the 10 users, 5 would be 256 download and 128 upload. 2 would be 512 download and 256 upload and 3 would be 1 mbps download and 512 upload.
I have firewall rules configured as per Wiki. I have a separate server handling bandwidth and user management, so no load on the Router-board for that.
Still latency would go up to 4 digits. and if any user starts uploading big files then it is trouble. Ping would break, ccq wld go down. Noise floor is still around -93/96.
Well, you have to give the config’s on both ends before it is possible to say anything more.
But the figure “-93/-96” is probably the signal. Because noise floor comes with one figure only.
If these are indeed the signals, than here you have you problem. Too weak of a signal. You need to bring it at least beyond -85 but better even beyond -75.
Ideal are signals between -50 and -70dBm
So probably you have to increase the signal strengths. Don’t immediately think of replacing the radio card because that should then happen on both ends of the link (AP + client) so you’d probably better investigate why signals are that bad. Look at the coax cable, connectors, height of the antenna’s, obstructions, distance.
If you give me more of all this info I can be of better help.
Well by -93/96 I mean the noise varies betn 93 to 96. So I dont think Noise is an issue. The signal for all clients r -55 to -72 So that is not an issue either. There is no question for Fresnel as my tower is 140 ft above ground and the clients r on 8-9 stories buildings located in an arc from my site almost 2-3 km away. There is nothing between..no trees…no buildings etc.
CCQ IS 95 mostly and goes down whn client starts upload. User plans are as mentioned earlier. Still thr r problems.
OK, well, you really have to give me an export of the wireless settings on both end. Most of my AP’s have around 30 clients, 1 rb800 even 40, and all clients are minimal allowed to 4Mb download and 800kbps up.
Under heavy usage ping times run up at time (peaks) into levels between 100ms and 150ms and very rare they reach 200ms
These pings are measured from my main gateway over my network to the CPE, so it includes several hops and at least one other wireless backhaul link to reach AP.
I am in a very heavy congested area in regards of the spectrum. All 5Ghz channels are used in a 15km range by me and several competitors. All my mast have minimal 3 radio’s in 5Ghz and 2 or 3 in 2,4Ghz. I have 13 AP’s and almost the same amount of backhauls.
Still most noise floors are bigger than (better than) -100 where only one reads -99.
Most are -104 to -108 and one overlooking the whole valley with all its radio’s only -116(!)
There must be something wrong on you config or antenna setup. I have the same card in use as you but everywhere I use all MT cards (apart from one link I use DBII) and they all work fine for me.
Give me your configs and physical layout (antenna, cable length, connector, radiocard, routerboard and the box the rb is located at.)
What antenna’s on the client side?
