CPE510 dropping connection constantly - is it DFS?
CPE510 v3.20
Setup
- I have two CPE510s setup.
- One as AP, the other as a Client.
- Aiming to provide internet access to out-house approx 50m away.
- In the UK
- Using good quality Cat6 cabling
Problem
- SSID from my AP is disappearing regularly.
- No devices can connect, including iPhones (5GHz capable) and the Client unit.
- Only way to resolve this is by restarting the AP.
- Occurs often - anywhere from 10mins to multiple hours
- When the issue occurs the AP is powered on, and I am able to login the admin page, nothing appears wrong with the AP.
Attempts to fix the problem
- I have setup static IPs for both (outside the DHCP range)
- I have tried fixed channels/frequency
- I have tried multiple wireless settings (mode, channel width, Max Tx rate)
When the connection works it is great but unfortunately it just doesn't last very long.
Is this a DFS issue? I have noticed the AP does change channel even from a fixed channel. Attached is a screenshot of my Spectrum Analysis - would these levels be enough to cause this issue? Always at -90dbm and jumps up to -60dbm regularly.
Thinking CPE210 would be the solution.
Any tips/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks :)
