Rick,
The signals levels sound like they may be WAY TOO HIGH for this short of
a link. Receiver overload has the effect of making a receiver "deaf".
Try a tiny antenna (maybe a rubber duck) on the CPE and re-do the ping
test.

This is the first week we had this customer connected - and they're the
first on the repeater...

History? Did it ever work?
Distance? 100' from the POP?
The signals are too "hot".

I have a system - Mikrotik 5.8 in on SR5 / 2.4 out on SR2
with currently one customer on it.
He's seeing occasional REALLY high latency through his device (High Gain
Antennas 8186hp @ 100' away from the POP) - like 900 - 5000 ms pings and
some time-outs.
I'm on what Mikrotik is telling me is a relatively quiet channel (3 to 5
devices at an average of -90's noise floor) and yet his network connection
just flaps like crazy because of the latency.
Can't run nstreme because of the devices I'd need to have connected (it's
a
hotspot on a rooftop)
But, I'm perplexed as to why this is doing this. A drive up to the
hotspot
with my laptop produces the same results, as does a test from one of his
other computers with a wifi card in it.
Things to look for / do ?
