What does ignitenet say to this missing 10-15db? Alignment problem?

We were able to move one end and get it down to 600' and have a 60GHz link at -55 but that is 10-15db below where it should be. It's working, but at this point I wouldn't use it for anything over 500' or so.

Metrolinq supports only the lower band with lower allowed power (1W EiRP). I’ve installed the newest FW before doing anything so I might be lucky to avoid the biggest problems (hopefully).

FWIW, there is no dfs support on 5ghz (not sure about non-american rules). If you are bench testing... you need to turn down the power on 5ghz .. way down....

The 5GHz Part does strange things. Does not initialze or does not connect. Syslog gives dfs or cant initialize messages. 60GHz is up immediately und runs stable in lab. Latency is low. Feels like a 1G cable connection. Powered by Netonix 24V. Takes only 6 Watts. Good build quality. Webinterface is easy and fast. So a cheap option for fast short hops where you dont want to dig. -- Carl Peterson PORT NETWORKS 401 E Pratt St, Ste 2553 Baltimore, MD 21202 (410) 637-3707
