[WISPA] Tranzeo/Mtik disconnect issue
2nd Send How is the MT/Tranzeo Beta Firmware working? I have issues when the disconnect happens the AP shows horrible signals from the Tranzeo's (-105 to -113) but if you start a ping to that radio it drops back to -69. Is this resolved as well? If I reboot the AP all the signals are fine. I am still on the old FW.

I will not disagree with Damian regarding the mtik patch. :) This **IS** an Mtik issue and affects more than just Tranzeo devices. ryan On Oct 7, 2008, at 2:30 PM, Damian Wallace wrote: MT has made several betas available for testing. The results are promising, but we aren't running real clients on the MT. We also have an extremely hacky way of dealing with this issue. We have an alpha available for this on a Non-Supported basis. When this feature is turned on, you have to reboot the AP when management changes like channel are made. You can get a copy of the alpha by emailing support. They will send you a copy of the firmware and a warning that this breaks a lot of ways AP send management frames, and that we don't support it. We think you are better off to use the Microtik patch since it should solve the problem for all units, not just Tranzeos. *** Register your services in our FREE WISP Locator http://www.part-15.org/maps/WISPSearch.asp *** The PART-15.ORG tranzeo Discussion List This is a Paid Subscription Email Discussion List Service.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo/Mtik disconnect issue...
I would not worry about radio name not showing up. Not a single one of mine have a radio name. That is a MT thing. I wish that MT and Tranzeo would get together on that and transmit that info from the Tranzeo's.

I would not read too much into this however, as some of my users power their radios down when not in use. The NS2's are all reported with anything from 1Mbps to 54Mbps as the tx rate but are always reported with 1mbps as the rx rate The NS2's are all reported with a radio name.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo/Mtik disconnect issue...
I have determined that my Signal issues is a bad XR2. The AP gets -68 from the client and the client only gets a -81 from the AP. I have a climber going up this morning to swap it. However, I did switch 2 AP to MT and the other is working better but still drops all clients from time to time. I just Checked it and all the clients up time are exactly the same time and it would have been reset at 2:43 AM but the uptime of the MT AP is 2 days 20 min.

Try pinging the NS2's with 512k or larger packets and see if they associate at a higher level. It might be showing that when there is not communication with any wi-fi device it operates in 1mb mode for basic association communication. If it changes to what you would expect then I would not be to worried about it. If it stays then be afraid... be very afraid or at least make sure you have the newest firmware on them and see if that helps.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo/Mtik disconnect issue...
Sounds like the fatal flaw in this sequence would be changing back to the MT AP! ;) in jest, of course We have a couple people (that we know of) running the Cisco VPN client through our Tranzeo/StarOS combo without issue...

So let me get this right. If you have Tranzeo CPE's you only use StarOS. MT does not work. Does Mikrotik even acknowledge that this is a issue and do they have plans to fix it. Part of the issue is I could not make Cisco VPN's work with StarOS V3 AP and a Tranzeo CPE. Had to change to a StarOS CPE. Now I changed to the MT AP and the StarOS CPE didn't work right.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo/Mtik disconnect issue...
I am starting to wounder about this issue myself Sunday, I replaced an old,(6 years in service!), Hermes I based AP, (base mounted radio, top mounted 1W amp, 150ft LMR-400) with a top mounted RB532A 5.8GHz backhaul and 2.4GHz AP. The radio card for the AP is an XR2 into a 9db Comet omni. 8ft of LMR-400. Set in B/G mode. Preamble set to both. CH9. All other settings, except ESSID are default. Connected to this AP was quite a mixture of clients, including: Tranzeo CPE-80, CPE-90, CPE-200, CPE-CPQ Lucent Hermes I client Senao CB3, EOC-2260 Ubquity NS2 Notes on the change. Sig strength reported by the mt range from -51 to -92 Thruput on the AP tripled. tests to my laptop while standing at the base exceeded 7Mb/sec which saturated my fiber. tests before the change could not exceed 2Mb/sec. The Tranzeo cpe-80 would not stay connected. it would connect and disconnect on a 5 sec cycle. replaced it with an eoc-2260 The B clients, all 6 of them, have stayed connected since power up. The NS2's, all 5 of them, seem to disconnect/reconnect in a block once or so a day. some of the remaining G clients, 4 of them, seem to disconnect/reconnect in a block in 8-9 hours the remaining G clients, 4 of them, are all over the place. from 18 hours to 1 hour. I would not read too much into this however, as some of my users power their radios down when not in use. The NS2's are all reported with anything from 1Mbps to 54Mbps as the tx rate but are always reported with 1mbps as the rx rate The NS2's are all reported with a radio name. Nothing else shows a radio name. The things I wounder about are the radio names not being reported, and the NS2's showing a 1Mbps rx rate all the time. Hope some find this useful, and any comments would be appreciated. Blair Travis Johnson wrote: This is NOT just a MT/Tranzeo issue.

Re: [WISPA] Tranzeo/Mtik disconnect issue...
Try pinging the NS2's with 512k or larger packets and see if they associate at a higher level. It might be showing that when there is not communication with any wi-fi device it operates in 1mb mode for basic association communication. If it changes to what you would expect then I would not be to worried about it. If it stays then be afraid... be very afraid or at least make sure you have the newest firmware on them and see if that helps.
