Deployed two 433AH boards with R52Hns with Rocket Dishes using NV2. Had very promising results in beginning but had lopsided TX/RX coming from station side as much as -20db. However, we were getting solid 75 Meg TCP and noticed on station side only HT chain 0 was check. We checked HT1 and had perfect balance in TX/RX and signal strengths of -59 on a 6.5 mile link. Once we checked HT chain 1 on station side now throughput is no better than 6 Meg. Uncheck chain 1 on station side and there is no change at all. Totally stumped on this one. Any ideas anyone?

With recent releases of ROS we note that if you’re not passing data it does lock into lower rates, BUT
What happens when you try to do a bandwidth test? it should go to higher rates
We were passing data over the link and it didn’t move at all. I did find the solution though. I reset the router board on the AP bridge side to factory default and reconfigured everything and it worked! Pushed over 50 Meg send and receive TCP! We’re happy again!
