Hello KnowledgeDigger,

Great post thank you!

I'm just wondering about the Link Loss prediction where LINKPlanner predictes 136.13 dB and the radio is measuring mean of 151.1 dB. It would be good if you could take field diagnostics of this link and also send the LINKPlanner project file with the .ptpprj extension. Field diagnostics can be obtained by typing ip_address/field_diags.cgi in the browser. For example 169.254.1.1/field_diags.cgi.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for your observation. For the field diagnostic file, i need to request those with the end user, currently they are satisfied with the performance of the link.

Thanks,

I'm surprised you weren't able to achieve a better RSSI. I find I'm always within my LinkPlanner predications if I have correctly entered the data into LinkPlanner. Might be worth checking as a few dB here or there could help in the long run.
