I may need to get them, what do you want...

@ Randy
My main path covers several hops so am using several different
frequencies. I keep an eye on what is coming in and going out of a
particular tower and plan for at least the recommended separation
between freqs. Most often I am able to separate more than that. Also I
change polarities to further the separation.
Two separate antennas, I couldn't get dual pols to push enough through
them even though the were good quality (radiowaves). Anybody want them?

Terri,
Thanks for the tips. Would you mind sharing a little more about your
setup? You're using Nstreme dual on a 433ah's, right? What
frequencies are you using? Both 5.8, or 5.2 and 5.8? Any cross-talk
interference issues? Anything you do to alleviate that?
You also mention dual-polarity antennas. Are you using single
antennas on both polarities, or two separate antennas on each end?
If so, why the dual-pols?
Thanks!

Two items to consider I think. First is dual polarity antennas. I
had issues using RadioWave dual pole antennas. Throughput was not
good at all. Went to two pacwireless antennas with good separation
between them and throughput improved greatly.
On using 532's, That is what I started with. CPU use went high and
went to 333s. That became high so went to 433AHs. So far putting
32meg (top end of our network use) through them, cpu use is around
50%. So they are doing nicely for me. This is on the nstreme dual
backhaul with no connection tracking.

I also put the radios up by the antennas. I can't see how anyone
could
afford the loss at 5GHz! Both links use 2ft PacWireless dishes (dual
polarity).
Maybe since you are using the good 4xx boards and I am using the
532s we're
getting very different results. I have had so many problems with
532s.
What kind of throughput do you see?

the minor backhauls I am just using nstreme with the same
equipment. I have
been been pleased with the performance in both situations. In all
the 5gig
stuff, we put the units at the top of the tower off of a jumper to
the
antenna since loss is high over long runs. Even using 7/8" heliax
I have
found around a 20db difference between having the unit at the top
and and at
the bottom (apprx 130' run of heliax). I set the nstreme dual for
best fit
and framer of 3500.

Would you mind sharing what you do as far as backhauls?
I have two pairs of routerboards for backhauls and haven't been
as pleased
as I am with Redline AN50s. Especially when they were on nstreme
dual
config (now I am using Butch's OSPF pseudo FDX method).

Don't see why going the higher for the ap. I use 411ah for APs
and 433ah
for backhauls. That works well for me pushing quite a bit of
bandwidth.

The only difference in the two boards is the 64 vs 128 megs of
RAM. Does
anyone know of a reason to justify the extra memory?
None of my APs come close to the 64 megs but they are currently
only
acting
as APs (routing, fw connection/NAT) and PPPoE servers.
Does anyone use the 411ah for APs? Pleased?
