I have customers using the AB indoor connected to a 15 db grid hitting an AP from about 12 miles away. We are talking out in the desert tho. No obstacles. Getting 89%LQ and 80-90 on RSSI. Now if They would just stay associated!!!

It is a little scary because sB braggs a 21 mile range with proper antenna (24dbi) in open space. I took that as a guarantee and I am betting on it. So far I have been able to get a signal percent or 22% with a 14dbi directional antenna using the AirNic and a laptop at 6 miles with decent line of site. When the 24dbi grid is added to the equation I get about 90-100 percent at the same 6 miles away. Is this good. Does anyone else get the same or better. If this works at 6 miles at near 100 with decent LOS I am going to bet that it will do the same at 10-15 with clear LOS on a tower without an amplifier. Anyone done this? Last question. What are your feelings on using utility poles for distribution of your services and do you think $700/month is too high? -- Rudolph Worrell President Phone:(540)664-3950 Fax:(270)458-6431 www.wave2net.com ------------------------------------------------- This mail sent through IMP: http://horde.org/imp/ ----------ANNOUNCEMENT---------- Don't forget to register for WISPCON IV http://www.wispcon.info/us/wispcon-iv/wispcon-iv.htm The PART-15.ORG smartBridges Discussion List To Join: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type subscribe smartBridges <yournickname> To Remove: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type unsubscribe smartBridges) Archives: http://archives.part-15.org ----------ANNOUNCEMENT---------- Don't forget to register for WISPCON IV http://www.wispcon.info/us/wispcon-iv/wispcon-iv.htm The PART-15.ORG smartBridges Discussion List To Join: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type subscribe smartBridges <yournickname> To Remove: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (in the body type unsubscribe smartBridges) Archives: http://archives.part-15.org
