JAWUG

Greetings,

A couple of months ago fruitloops and myself both connected to sangoma. The signal was not awesome but pretty good.

Fruitloops started picking up issues in the beginning of spring and after a couple of visits to sangoma's roof we realized that the trees between sangoma and fruitloops were covered in nice thick green leaves.

We decided to put up a Mikrotik RB/333 on my roof so that fruitloops (and anyone else) could connect to the wug via me and so RickJ2 was born.

We first used a 13 dbi Yagi to sangoma and the cpe facing fruitloops. The link between sangoma and me was terrible,we had bad signal strength and it constantly dropped.

We then bought a 22dBi+ 2.4Ghz grid antenna and pointed that towards sangoma and the signal was much better but we still had some some stability issues which we fixed by removing the yaggi and changing frequency. So now all we have up is a cpe and a grid.

So here are the new pics of the rb:!!

The aerial is currently pointing at what we think is sangoma but we could be mistaken.!!
