hello!

i use a RB-532 with MT-SW 2.9.30 as AP (WPA/TKIP). - a few clients are connected - one of them is very weak because there is no clear line.. (signal between -80dbm and -87dbm on 2.4ghz) - from time to time the clients gets disconnected in fact of an signalfading because of weather conditions etc.. (i know it could be better )

my question is:
every time while RE-assosiating all other clients have packetloss on their public-ip. - is there a way to prevent such PL? (except making the singnal stronger )

thanks for any response!

btw: my wlan-cards are R52 - does this cards support hardware en-/de-cyrption for wpa [aes/tkip] - or is everything mainprocessorbased?

There is a post elsewhere in this forum, namely at

<http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php ... f6ceaba5de>

wherein wisp-equipment makes a suggestion regarding this problem.

Caveat: I may have missed it, but I didn't see a second by the folks at MikroTik, although they hardly ever post to this forum I guess because they aren't MIkroTik users (denying access to the rich experience from being at the statistical top of the support food chain is an interesting marketing philosophy not usually followed by industry leaders). If they do wear the shoes they cobble, then I guess the policy saves MikroTik money, but costs us users a small fortune

Hi Chris,

With regard ot the parameter changes, perhaps MikroTik's silence is to be considered as "silence is consent" but then you wonder why they haven't changed the defaults.

According to <http://www.mikrotik.com/pdf/R52.pdf>:

Hardware 64 and 128 bit WEP; Hardware TKIP and AES-CCM
encryption; 802.1x WPA authentication

We buy them 20 at a time (the minimum order from the factory); the RIC/522 is even better for PTP and PTMP but play out at about 8.5-9.0 miles unless you can run the lower frequences. We also use them in access points with a good strong antenna (say a 16 dBi 120 sector).

IMHO, less sizzle, more steak than others on the market.
