Hi CJ
Thanks for the reply.
Could you please clarify me on the below details.
1. What is the minimum best rssi value we should get in mesh link? In my case it is 34
2. Enabling HT will increase the coverage if I am right. So enabling HT will should increase rssi value on the link . am I right that too in 802.11a band?
3. If there is no much traffic on mesh link that too in 802.11a band so enabling bcmc will help in this case.?
I am sorry if I am asking too many question but just getting clarify that's all.
Thanks once again
1. 20 should be your target. 34 is very good
2. HT would not increase the RSSI, but in general, it would make it more reliable. If it does not make it more reliable in your circumstance, it could be an issue in your environment.
3. Turning on bcmc on the VLAN would remove downstream broadcasts, which *could* remove some of the contention, yes.
Ultimately, if you turn HT off and it makes the link more reliable, leave it off. There are things in your environment that you cannot fix, and if you can improve things by making a change, do it.
