Hi all,
Recently I have noticed a high RX error rate on my nanobridge. I am currently running the 20453 build. However I have tried installing up to 5 builds back as well and still seem to be having this issue.
I am not totally convinced that it is a problem with my AP however, almost instantly after connecting to the remote network the RX errors begin to spike. However it always stays around a 5% range, so about 100,000 RX , and 5,000 RX-errors on the status-wireless page.
Upon logging into the AP via SSH and doing a ifconfig ath0 or iwconfig ath0 i noticed that the Encryption Key: setting shows off. In the GUI it shows that I am connected to the said network, with encryption enabled, WPA2-PSK. I can connect to other devices on the said network, but again the errors just spike to the 95%/5% and hover there while in the SSH it shows encryption key: off.
Should I have a key filling that field? I've noticed other devices using either OpenWRT or AirOS show a key in that field.
Does anyone have a good idea of where to trouble shoot deeper or is that key a major issue?
::Summarize::
1. High error rate (never acted like this in the past).
2. I CAN successfully connect to the network and talk to other devices.
3. GUI shows encryption enabled, SSH shows the key to be off.
4. Remote network AP shows no high errors being transmitted, queued or anything like that (that i can see anyway).
5. 20km shot @ -78/-95 (the best i can get it, worked perfect in the past till recently.)
6.* - Connections using this AP have been HORRIBLE recently, constant loss of pings, connecting to remote devices takes ages, constant disconnects... Thats what led me to post this.
I can provide postings of CLI returns if anyone needs some more info.
also u should switch over to NanoBridgeM25 which enhances the link only 6db. oyu should go with ubnt rockets and rocketdishes 30db for 20km shots! _________________ Forum Guidelines...How to get help
