Yes, .... in the UBIQUITY World, if you want a transparent bridge... use WDS (so ... wds always !).
and YES, turn on AIRMAX...
(Airmax is proprietary to Ubiquity, so two UBNT radios are much happier with Airmax on, plus with Airmax is not 'compatible' with standards 802.11a/b/g/n so other radios will see the signal but will not attempts to connect.

How wide are the channels, and is there any interference on them ?

It is routed, using miktrotik routers. Do I use WDS with airmax? I don't think it is a loop because the other bridges are basically doing the same thing but not seeing the same problem. They are Trango link 45's

Sounds like you are creating a loop somewhere...

Is this a routed network ?  or a bridge Network.
(Make sure that you have WDS on for fully transparent bridge)
and also make sure you turn off Enable Discovery in the first tab (picture of airmax logo)... (equivalent CDP in the cisco world).

Also keep in mind that if you are using Cisco Switches in your network.. and it is a bridge network...... Cisco's by default have STP ON .... not OFF as one would expect.

Isn't -53 a little too hot?

Are you using WDS? I don't know if AirMax has changed this but I know one used to need to run with WDS on for a purely transparent bridge.

We are working on deploying a pair of M5 dishes on our network bridging point a and point b. When we plug in the network to the dishes, the ping times climb to 1200+ms on side b of the bridge, and equipment local to the side b of the bridge, and time out after two or more hops, essentially bringing the whole network down. We can ping point to point with no traffic at 2ms. We are replacing a pair of existing bridges from another manuf. and not seeing this issue over these. Signal is -53dbm on both sides. -85 noise floor. Any ideas?
