We are using secotor anteenas 120 degree x 2 and facing self interference problem and i want to know if i keep them 10 ft away from each other will this solve the self interference.
I just want to know which one is correct way to installaling sector?
Site 1 or Site 2
Here are the frequencies
On first radio
Mode = ap bridge
Band = 2.4GHZ B
Freq = 2412
SSID = ABC
On Second radio
Mode = ap bridge
Band = 2.4GHZ B
Freq = 2437
SSID = ABC1
Bridge1 with eth1+wlan1+wlan2(192.168.1.10)
I am not certain what you mean by self interference, unless they are on the same or a very close frequency, and they shouldn’t be. Can you be a bit more specific about the radios and frequencies you are using?
If all is well with your setup, you should be able to use this. No 10’ separation here.

The frequencies are clear. What kind of radios? An R52 may not cause a problem where a XR2 may.
I do not bridge wireless radios with other wireless radios. Eats up a lot of bandwidth unnecessarily Have you tried a setup without the bridge?
Radios and RB.
1 x rb433ah
2 x XR2
2 x 16dbi 120 degree sector.
No i havent tested without bridge…suppose if the problem will solve w\o bridge then how can my client connect to interntet as i have backhaul fiber cable connected to ether port. If it is possible then pls guide me.
I am not familiar with your setup, or what your operational requirements are, so I will use my setups as an example.
I separate my frequencies as you do, but each is assigned its own ip/subnet. I would use 192.168.2.1/24 on one, and 192.168.4.1/24 on the other. My ethernet would be 10.0.0.2/24. 10.0.0.1/24 is assigned to the interface on the router that is on the other end of that cable. No bridge.
I don’t use 192.168.0.0/24 or 192.168.1.0/24 on any of my networks. Too many residential routers (and Windows Internet Connection Sharing) have those as a default localnet subnet. I allow my customers to use all those if they wish. This is the only way some of my customers are able to use their online game boxes that do not have a web browser. They set up Internet Connection Sharing on the laptop wireless device, and the laptop ethernet port is automatically assigned 192.168.0.1/24, and that is where they connect the game box. Then they login with the laptop browser, and the game console is online.
I use hotspots on all my client (non-backhaul) radios. That keeps a lot of garbage off the backhauls.
The rest would depend on your setup. If the ether1 connects to the internet, I would set a masquerade on ether1. Otherwise, I route the 192.168.2.0/23 and the 192.168.4.0/23 nets back to this router from the router on the other end of that ethernet cable. I use /23 because I always like to have another subnet in case I want to add another radio.
ADD: And insure your power supply is up to this. When those XR2s start transmitting, they use up to 5 watts each. That means a 12v1a wall wart won’t do it.

Buddy i m not using hotspot here is my configuration
Ethernet<>----- Mikrotik ap <> ----Station(clients)
10.10.0.0-------------------------10.10.0.0
Can i use this without bridge ?
I don’t set up my networks that way, so it isn’t something I use. It has caused me problems in the past, but because the net operated slowly, not cause the radios to interfere with each other.
If you are certain your power supply is good for that much power, then I don’t have anything else to offer. I hope someone else can help you.
