I have 2 AP-175's being put into production as outside AP's. They are being controlled by a 3400, which is on code 6.1.3.6.
One AP is already mounted on the building, with 2 D805 antenna connected. The other is connected and powered up on my desk. Both have been provisioned for open access with 1 SSID. They are working, meaning I can go outside with a laptop some 30 or 40 feet away and connect to the SSID (I usually see 2 or 3 bars on the laptop) and can connect out to the Internet.
This is exactly what we want them to do.
The problem is that they both only have limited RSSI lights. Usually none or 25% on Radio 0 and 25% or 50% on Radio1. They are for a campus graduation with roughly 250 guests. I am concerned that while the connection is good for 1 laptop, it doesn't seem like it's going to hold up for 100 or more user devices since it seems like I don't have proper signal strength.
Am I missing something here? Any help or advice would be welcome.
