We have a pretty large 320 network (200 SM's) and just recently had to move to 3.5mhz channel sizes because of self-interference between sectors. The ABAB channel plan will not scale well and you will suffer high packet loss as a result. Once your cluster hits around 20-30 SM's you'll begin to see it.
Moving to a ABCD channel plan has resolved many issues and packet loss is very minimal now. Customer experience has greatly improved. We have subscribers at 9 miles so moving to 5mhz channel size is not an option until the "extended range" firmware is released. Obviously, once this software is released and the product gains upper 25mhz approval we can then run ABCD channel plan in 10mhz. Until then, we're stuck. -Eric On 12/16/2010 3:39 PM, Carl Shivers wrote: > I'm running v6.2.4.3 on the SMs and System Release e2.0.1 on the APs. > > -----Original Message----- > From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On > Behalf Of David Sovereen > Sent: Thursday, December 16, 2010 2:07 PM > To: WISPA General List > Subject: Re: [WISPA] Motorola PMP 320 > > The current firmware works very well.
