but i do really like the interface on the 650

This is really beginning to irritate me, Now the guy who
replaced the gear is still blaming us for the problems
here, I moved the ubnt gear clear down to like 5.1 or
whatever the lowest channel is, the spectrum at this and
the remote site are deplorable.
The Signal/Noise ratio is moving around on the ptp650 and
the Vector Errors are off the chart, but he still wants to
blame our equipment.
I can tell you it boils down to an improper system repair
post disaster. I pulled screen shots, both before and after
I moved our channels, showed them the issue with their own
colocated radios, turned on assymetric channels, yes, they
were running symmetric in a high noise environment, nothing
could go wrong there, right?
Now tomorrow, my boss is going there to unplug our radio,
taking our customers down. Im betting some utter nonsense
like capacitant power or our antenna shape ends up being to
blame here.
I know ubnt is shit and bleeds noise allover, this
particular radio is a rocket m5 with the 30db dish and the
shield kit. The link is 90 degrees off both of theirs (ours
is west, they have one north and one south) I believe we
have 30 foot vertical sep between it and their closest
radio. I can see how a rocket would magically destroy the
whole 5ghz spectrum and not have performance issues
itself.I even cycled the UBNT radios to make sure that they
actually did change channels.
ATPC power ranging not matching current TX output and RX
doesnt make any sense to me. Interference alone will not
alter RX power unless its very very notable.
And then to top it off its said it would be better to move
completely off the band to 3ghz since it cant interfere.
Yeah, great fucking idea, lets take the only semi clean
spectrum left and burn it on a backhaul thats performing as
it should because other people dont know how to
troubleshoot their own damn gear.
But the kicker to that would be "oh, you must still be
interfering, that m365 is actually a 5ghz radio downconverted
how bout this, climb the damn tower and fix the fuckup
fucking meh

Im not doing anything, this is a not my chair not my
problem issue.
This strike blew everything on the tower, if it was
electronic, it cooked, the switch was sitting on back
of the APC and welded to it even tripped the breaker
Im just curious with these if theres any issue with the
ATPC on these bas boys

Inspect the cables or at lease switch one or both
out at one end and see if a prevalent change is made.
Could be a feed horn but unlikely I would shoot
for pigtails first.

I just got done troubleshooting a 650 link for our
landlord we are coloed with on a couple towers. I
had not looked at the ptp interface since the 500.
This thing is freaking beautiful, and I never
compliment anybody, especially on a web gui.
Sooooo much information, so easy to find.
one question though, They have atpc set to -35 on
these, does that basically turn atpc off, or could
it cause a problem?
Im pretty sure they have a loose antenna or
damaged feedhorn/patch cables (this was a
lighnting replacement of a ptp500, reusing the
cables/feedhorn)
The system statistics showed a variation of
received power ranging from -47 to -78 with a peak
of -110 , -78ish being current. Transmit powers
show a variation of -15dBm up to 21 dBm (I did not
notice the negative value at first). This would
account for the range of Received power except
When the Status screenshots were taken, the
transmit power on both units was at 21 dBm with a
77/78 receive power on each side. If the output
power is accurate, the receive power on the remote
end would be at the peak, not the mean.
