I didn't read the entire thread, but generally when you see a low TX like that on Ubiquiti and the RSSI indicates it should be stronger it's an ACK issue, specifically too short of an ack calculation. Make sure you are using a fixed ACK on those, and that it is set high enough to cover the distance.

Nope. Crawling as it has been since Tuesday afternoon. 6.5Mbps tx is sloooow. Got some sleep so going back now. Any & all ideas are welcome!
