Look at the power field, you have set 26 mw, but omnitik gives you 26 dBm that is 398mw.

Dang! You are right, I didn't change the dropdown to dbm!
Ok, so the actual answer with that calculator is 6km. Although, i think that would be pushing it, especially since both ends are omni. The actual practical limit is probably around 4km or less, depending on surrounding noise.

Mikrotik officially says 5km Omnitik to STX, so it would definately be NOT MORE than that. How far are you actually wanting to go between 2 Omnitiks?

Hi,
does anyone use the omnitiks in the wds mode (or similar) for connectivity distribution? If yes, what is the experience?

I would like to use 3-4 in approx. 200-400m distances (mostly clear visibility) for covering the country area of small houses when one would be acting as router with 2 wan connections and others will distribute the connectivity with approx 2-4 clients via both wifi or cable connections.

How it will work? Are there any limitations? What throughput can I expect thru the network?

Thank you in advance.
