I have been having very good luck with the RB711UA-2HND. It has the integrated radio card and the performance has been very stable for me when running as an AP.

We are currently using XR2 for our APs, but want to move to dual-polarity. We have some R52n-M cards out, but the XR2s hear better and have higher transmit power. I am really looking for the receive sensitivity, but I like higher power cards because the signal seems to be cleaner on almost all cards the more the transmit power is decreased. So an XR2 at 24dB seems cleaner than an R52n-M at 24dB. I don't have testing to prove, but we almost always get better performance if the card is not running at maximum power. -- Scott Reed Owner NewWays Networking, LLC Wireless Networking Network Design, Installation and Administration Mikrotik Advanced Certified www.nwwnet.net (765) 855-1060 (765) 439-4253 (855) 231-6239 _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list Mikrotik@mail.butchevans.com http://mail.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik RouterOS _______________________________________________ Mikrotik mailing list Mikrotik@mail.butchevans.com http://mail.butchevans.com/mailman/listinfo/mikrotik Visit http://blog.butchevans.com/ for tutorials related to Mikrotik RouterOS
