28.01.04 - Experimentation
after experimenting with a 10dbi-18dbi Corner Reflector (directional)
antenna this evening I have managed to acheive a good (reliable)
signal strength at a distance of approximately 700m - with 2 nodes <
1km from me I hope to be able to get some connectivity happening soon.
Also have access to another antenna (ex optus-vision - appears to be
the same as the galaxy one in the video tutorial) which will be the
next one to be trialed.
These distances were acheived without a proper connector to the AP
(having trouble getting a female TNC connector for a linksys AP so the
coax from the antenna was simply pushed around the contact) so once
this is sorted and a mast installed I'm sure that a much grater
distance will be acheived!
Thank to Cam (node INR) for helping out (putting up with me) this
evening - and let's hope we get a link between us soon!
