<DIV>Hello, </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We have connected 2 access points using them for point-to-point connection </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>info: </DIV>
<DIV>Output power: 0.1W </DIV>
<DIV>Frequency: 5.850Ghz</DIV>
<DIV>Tx antenna line loss:1-2dB</DIV>
<DIV>Tx antenna gain: 28dBi </DIV>
<DIV>Path Length: 2.6miles</DIV>
<DIV>Rx antenna gain: no info </DIV>
<DIV>Rx transmission line loss: 1-2dB</DIV>
<DIV>Rx Signal: no info </DIV>
<DIV>Rx threshold: -73dBm</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>+)Device 1 has bigger and stronger antenna than device 2</DIV>
<DIV>+)Device 1 is higher than device 2. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Output log from device 1) </DIV>

<DIV>Questions: </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. What is the meaning of RxSignalStrength?</DIV>
<DIV>2. What is the meaning of AckSignalStrength?</DIV>
<DIV>3. How can I lower the amount of duplicate packets </DIV>
<DIV>4. From the Tx and Rx values, can I draw conclusion for the aligning of the antennas? </DIV>
<DIV>5. Is it possible one of the antennas to be aligned properly, but the other not, so I can get very high ratio of failed ack. packets and the transfer to be slow because of this issue? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thank you. </DIV>
