Just trying to get some clarity.....wifi inside a wooden shed. Omni Antennas (may need to add a directional. 12 Feet from the garden shed is a wood fence with a about 2 Feet of shrubs/tree branches, etc on both sides of the fence. How much or how little does branches, leaves, etc affect wifi...

3x3 Omni Access point on wall. On the same wall, just 4 feet away, I need to install a - directional AP- pointing to a very specific spot. As long as one is on channel 6 and the other is on channel 11, will this be a issue of them causing backscatter, interference, etc

the 14db difference (better) is actually on the XPS 15 - It has a River Killer wireless nic onboard.

Wi-Fi Lite on my Dell XPS with Rivet Wireless - looking at Aruba AP's vs. MacBook Pro - WiFi Explorer Granted the app is just a -tool- to set a baseline, but the results seem to be about 14DB difference between the data I see on the Windows setup vs Mac Setup

Just a update. Ordered TP Link directional and pole mount. I think this may do the trick

I have a AP in the garden shed. It's a older 802 ABGN Dual Radio Aruba. The shed is primarily wood construction. However, right next to the shed is also a Pizza Brick Oven with lotsa of brick, CMU, etc. The pool house is about 50 feet away and I get decent signal - 60DB However, behind the...

Heading over to my sisters house. Plan to bring a stash of rtac66u . Does the Roaming Assistant within the Asus firmware work. Nothing crazy. Just plan to put a AP in the 1st floor and another one on the 2nd. If not, I have some aruba / ruckus on hand which I know will do handoff, etc. Just...

Just setup a N66U for my sister. Aside from the usual stuff, the guess wireless I tinkered with and removed it. It published the SSID just fine, but noticed it was not acquiring a DHCP address. Tinkered with it, and magically after around 2 minutes, it got a DHCP address. Went to the 2nd...

What benefits do you get when running business grade AP's. I'm talking a step below let's say a Aruba 105. Aside from features, POE AP's, seamless roaming, etc. If one was to use them just as AP's, nothing fancy on rulesets, authentication, etc - are business grade AP's just more...

Looking to install 6 APS + 1 Outdoor AP on a large property of mine. Ideally want to go controller-less. Looking at Ubiquity which seems to be nicer on the budget. I know of others who have uses the Nano in P2P and it is reliable. I demoed a UniFi Pro awhile back. Setup was straightforward...

Wireless does not drop for me...at least in the sense of using AP - if not AP's generally flashed with DDWRT and then using them as client bridges. The only time it will drop is if I get a power brownout, and it loses power momentarily....and then the AP's will need a unplug/plug to get them...

I am faced with a very weird situation. I need a ethernet drop from a location that cannot get cabled it. All it will be doing is streaming video from both a production box (video files in production) or the WIP - work in progress BR feeds. I am looking at the powerline equipment but am...

I have both tried a couple of 3700's setup in a WDS fashion. Using OEM firmware... The baked in WDS setup for the 3700 was terrible. The AP's would connect and then disconnect from the main AP. With that said, I may flash one of the 3700's with DDWRT as a client bridge. I do need to...
