Unfortunately the barn is hidden by a couple of big trees so the only option that I have is the house. I think that I can go another 4 feet higher.
Thanks, I will go give it a shot and let you know. -C�sar -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Pascal Losier Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 10:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] How do I improve a link? Well, Maybe I'm wrong but, ...... your mid point freznel zone is around 56 feet. So, you need 28 feet above all obstacle beetween your tower & your CPE. A farm should be more than 25 feet. I would try it on the top roof of the farm. Or just try a 19Dp Panel & Radio with a Laptop to see what you get on the top of the roof. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cesar Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 1:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] How do I improve a link? Pascal, The height of the antenna at the customer's site is about 24 feet, and my sector antenna is on top of a hill that is about 400 above the valley. That should be good enough, correct?

What is the height from the ground of that 24db antenna ?? You need LOS + freznel zone clearance. I have found, the higher you go at custumer's site, the better it is ! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cesar Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 12:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [smartBridges] How do I improve a link? Thanks Jeremy, I have been told the same and that is the reason we've stayed away from amps. I already dropped the RTS to 256 and that helped, but not enough. I will try dropping the rate to 1 Mbs to see if it helps.

I've been told NOT to use amps on the client side because it will cause an RF nightmare. I'd suggest lowering the clients RTS settings and I've even found that dropping the client's rate to 1 or 2 Mbs has helped for customers with low signal. This all depends on the problem. If they just want a better signal, they probably won't get it unless you do a point to point link. If they keep dropping off or disconnecting, then the above suggestions may work. You're probably just pushing the limits of your range. _____ Jeremy _____ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Cesar Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 11:07 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [smartBridges] How do I improve a link? Hi everyone, I need your help/advice on improving a customer's connection. He is 10.5 miles away from my APPO (14.5 Sector antenna) and there is a clear LOS. He is using an Outdoor airBridge and a 24dBi grid antenna. At this point in time there are no amps involved, but I am seriously considering to install one at the clients site. Do you think that an Amp would solve the problem? Or do you have something in your bag of tricks that I can use? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
