Re: [Cambium-users] Cambium 900i Performance

2018-01-26 Thread George Skorup
Back when the 900 450 first started shipping, we discovered a couple bad 
SMs. Linktests were in the dirt no matter what. I don't remember if the 
modulations were always low or not. I'm thinking everything looked 
normal which was why we were so confused. But we put another SM in place 
and it went from something like 4Mbps aggregate to over 20. And repeated 
this at a couple locations. So we set those aside and moved on.


As others have said, what do linktests look like? And what about uplink 
and downlink modulations? What are the power levels? Hotter than -40dBm 
is too much.


My question would be, why are you using 900 for LOS and/or extremely 
short range? I'd put up an ePMP 2k on an omni and call it done.


Also keep in mind that the 900 450 SMs do NOT have the filtering that 
the 450i AP does. They're just that, a standard 450 SM. So if you're 
running zero guard band on your cluster, a really close SM could 
definitely be seeing adjacent channel interference.

Any theories?

Link test good or bad?

Can you power off the 3 APs quick to confirm it's the problem or not?

Tried a new SM?

We have a problem with 900PMP450i.  We have 4 APs on a tower.  We have a 
customer that is very near (1/10 mile) with clean LOS.  But for some reason, 
the customer can't get any speed.   We speculated that perhaps the SM was 
seeing too much signal from different APs?   We've tried locking the SM down by
