Rick,
Hi Jack...
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.
what dB level would you consider too high? We're seeing some of our 900
radios "recycle" and others just don't yet the signals are in the -80s
and -70s. Nothing consistent.
Take care leon

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 ?
