Showing the wear and tear
It seems like in last 3 weeks I have change 4 different MeshAP. They all had the same symptons:
Radio Card was hearing a lot of noise
Radio Card power was weak
Software did not have the ability to mesh
It seems that the radio cards that I used 3 years ago were low power Netgear type PCI cards. I configure them in Wiana to be either auto power or I increased the power to 200 mW. It didn't mater if I ran the cards overpower or in normal the cards are starting to fail. And it is really funny that they are all failing with in weeks of each other. Is it to do with the their environment? I don't have enough data or expertise to determine why these radio cards would start to fail.
If the radio cards are failing then I would have to add a maintenance program that would go and visit each MeshAP once every 30 months to replace the radio card. I am now wondering the commercial units. Do they have the same problem?
