I’m got a pile of PowerBeam/NanoBeam or whatever you call them PTP links up and they work fine. They would work better with DFS on the shorter links but a couple of them are 10 miles. I’m running 5MHz channels on the longer ones though, high-interference environments.

I hadn’t seen the problem until about a week ago. Had PowerBridge talking to a Powerbeam talking to a PowerBridge which then link to a another PTP using NS5’s and an AP on that end. It seemed to work great for several months. A week ago, the AP at the end started pushing through 10-20 pings and then dropping 3 pings. After finding nothing, we pull the PowerBridge and replaced it with a PowerBeam. Problem solved. On the other hand, we have a boatload of NS5M’s, some with XW firmware connected to XM Rockets. No problems so far. Rory
