ePMP 2000 - all SM to sector

Hello

how is it possible?

ePMP 2000 3.0.1 and SM Force 200, all CPE on sector antenna.

Is that normal that no cpe go on the uplink panel antenna?

Hi,

No it is not usual behavior.

Do you see Smart Antenna connected status on ePMP2000 UI?

Do you have photos of your deployment?

Could you please try 3.1-RC30 on ePMP2000?

Thank you.

+1 on trying 3.1RC30.  We saw numbers of clients connected to smart antenna drop with 3.0.1 (40%) and 3.1RC24 (5%), now with 3.1RC30 we're seeing 95%+ connecting to smart antenna again.  (more often than not it's 100% using smart antenna)

Hello

I tried also the 3.1rc30 with no important differencies.

The smart antenna is correctly connected and detected.

I have also other epmp2000 systems deployed but also they have the same behaviour.

this particular install have two problems:

1st: it reboots every 10minutes - it replaced an EPMP1000 AP that was working fine.

2nd: everyone on sector.

it is on a belltower at 35mt high, 

Hello,

Could you see if you get a crashlog (use command "debug crashlog" from the CLI)?

Regards

hello no crasholog. Today the epmp2000 brand new ceased to exist.

Today we are going to replace it. It died.

I have also updated 3.1 on all SM and AP but my EPMP2000 are ALL using sector!

Hello Maggiore81,

Thanks for the crashlog. We've been able to reproduce this issue in our lab and we are currently investigating it. Are you running with a 2.5ms frame? Going back to 5ms frame should prevent this. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Regards
