Title: Re: [smartBridges] Slow down problems

Assuming you are using the AirBridge Total, you may want to use an AirBridge Outdoor with an 18dB flat panel (Maxrad is what I use).  I have seen significant (night and day comparison) gains in signal between the two especially when trying to shoot through obstacles.  I have access to these at an unbelievably low price if you are interested.  Let me know.   There is not a Citrix application (a single terminal?) out there that I aware of that requires a minimum of 512K so that is bologna.  The Citrix specs right off of their website state that 20K of bandwidth is needed for each Citrix session and an additional 16K per session if using low quality audio and up to 1.3MB per session if using high quality audio.  Easy to figure out medium quality - split the difference.   I would still try and get the signal levels up as you want to be able to provide consistent service.   -----Original Message----- From: Steve Good [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2003 10:29 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Quick Help   I am going out to a customers location today and going to go up on a man lift to about 40+ feet high to test signal. Last week I got on their roof and was able to get signal at 30 RSSI and 70+ link Quality. I was able to transfer between 100k-380k  on speed tests. They have a citrix program that requites (so they say) no less then a 512k connection. They are willing to put up a tower because they rather pay 79.99 vs. 1400+ a month (dedicated line)   This location is right next less then 100 yards from a power plant and they do not have a line of sight to the tower but are about 3 miles and just shooting thru the top of some trees. For some reason 500k is about the best I get off the tower so the speed is not my concern here, what is my concern is that they are also shooting thru 2 power transmit lines that are 500KV, will these lines cause problems with the wireless signal? Would it be not recommended to leave them at 30 rssi and 70 LQ if they can maintain a constant signal and never loose connection. I know the RSSI is way way low but the connection seems to work fine. any suggestions. anything I might do to help improve it?     Thanks, Steve Good
