I am curious if anyone thinks this is multipath and has a suggestion on
how to fix.

 

This just happens to be my dads house, radio mounted to a j-mount on eve
of house, clear LOS to tower <1 mile away, -56 signal. This eve is over
the porch roof to the east and signal shoots over the south plane of the
roof which is an approx 30deg angle. I was over this morning and he is
complaining the Internet is not working and I go in to do some
troubleshooting. I setup a constant ping to the AP and I am getting
<1ms, I start to browse and the pings jump to >300ms and random lost
packets.

Configure a new radio in the house and have a -75 signal in the house,
try the ping thing again and all seems fine. I replace he radio on the
roof and I am back to the poor ping times again.

 

Now I don't understand multipath as well I should but it seems to make
sense in this case. Is it possible to reduce or remedy without moving
the radio to a totally different location?
