You didn't do your reading of the manual while you waited for arrival
It's right there on Status Tab to the left, Wireless Signal Quality, SNR it's the db and Transmit Signal Quality it's the Aligment, on Client side

I want to choose "Antenna settings"!!!!!!!! I cant find something like on 5210



cpe510 has 2 antennas, I want to use vertical one. Firmware in 510s was 1.0.0 I flashed them with 1.2.1 because on 1.0.0 there is no gateway so they couldnt get time from NTP, and maybe thats why now I cant choose antena and turn off horisontal one.

BTW.... 4920-6080MHz is seem to be covered with -60 to -30dBm on client spot(Spectrum Analisis), no gaps at all. Tommorrow I'll mount AP but it seems that link wouldnt work, it's too crowded. I didnt beleive to my friend who told me that all providers mounted 5GHz links 2 or more years ago. There are almost 100 networks on 2,4GHz but I see more than 250 on 5GHz and a lot of providers' (18 different providers here) links with -67 to -50dBm(Survey). I know that one provider mount more than 20 MikroTik NetMetal5 2000mW routers on my and two close buildings few months ago.

I'll try cpe510 link tommorrow when I mount AP on other location. I started mounting client after work and it seems that days are not so long. I'll try but it seems that I will stay on 5210. :(

That's the past
Now you have.a MIMO device
Google what is MIMO antenna
You have a new range of freqs from 4920 MHz to 6100 MHz for 5GHz products. so if 5 is crowded use 6100 freq or 4920
If you had selected a country in your settings, default it and do not select any country, use TEST MODE
up to you if you want to upgrade to latest firmware here http://forum.tp-link.com/showthread.php?82073-TP_PharOS_1.3.0_150807_Beta-add-CDP-Radius-MAC-Auth-and-compatible-with-MikroTik.&p=165006&viewfull=1#post165006

Well I became MSc in electrical engineering & computer science a long time ago in 1994. so a lot of news from then. Ty,for MIMO, I will study this new design.
Whole range 4920 MHz to 6100 MHz is soo crowded I'll post pictures when I finish.
Well I had an hour today to go to AP location and I mounted it there, now I am at client location, but not so happy. It seems that locations and directions of old devices were the best for new devices. I am surfing through new link now. I have 55-65 Mb/s with two cpe510. Yes it is faster than 15 Mb/s with 5210 but distance is only 2 km OK more, but it's less than 3 km straight line. Tomorrow I will tweak parameters and I expect to get some Mb/s more. I'll documented whole project with pictures and tips I found for a few days. Ping is OK 1-2ms, 1,3ms average.













I limited internet speed to 50Mb/s for this subnet so it works, but I need more than 60Mb/s for file transfer and games through my wireless LAN. I have giga LAN on boat locations so this speed seem so slow.




Old devices, after 5 years.I didnt clean them. They are clean because they actually have never been outdoor, they have been protected from rain and direct sunlight
