![]() Best way is to do two separate links each link with two radios (one per end) Sorry for being quite thick - I have not worked with these much. Or one Ubiquiti at the main office connecting both offices A &B? What would be the best way for maximum throughput? 2 x at the main office (one connecting to office A and another one connecting to office B). We are thinking of getting 4 x Ubiquities. What would be the best way of connecting the Ubiquities? We just learned we will be renting out another office in another building nearby (also the same estate, also clear line of sight from our main office and maybe 80 meters away). It looks like we will be upgrading the current units with Ubiquiti NanoBeam AC GEN2 (model NBE-5AC-Gen2 Opens a new window). I admit I have never tried it, but have thought about it. Another thought is if one of the wireless links goes down due to an obstruction or radio issue etc, LACP would be unaware of that since the Ethernet link would still be up even though there is not data connection due to the wireless link being down. It seems like this would throw off the aggregation/load balancing algorithms and cause unexpected results. 100mbps) while the actual wireless streams may be less than that, and capacity will vary based on environmental conditions. I'm not sure how well a LAG would work using wireless since LACP for example expects the data rate of the individual links to match the Ethernet link speed(ex. ![]() Is it possible to utilise these and increase the speed of the connection? Is this what you mean by a LAG group?ĭo you have any guides on how to achieve this? We have a couple spare NanoStations available. The existing connection is 2 x NanoStation M5s (Point to Point). As you found, MOST of the time with PoE equipment problems, the resolution is related to power. I can only suggest making sure the firmware is updated, and you're using the "not compatible" frequency options to connect the bridges, I'm sure that's an option for the NanoStations if it is for the Nano Loco. Fortunately our Electical dept had to upgrade service for the new buildings anyway, so they ran some low voltage conduit for me when they did their high voltage conduit. When I thought I was going to need more bandwidth for the maintenance garage we were building, I considered doing 2 x1 or even 3 x1 arrays of Nano Loco's. I currently have a bridge to a lightpost out on the south end of our facility, 4 FHD IP cameras and a Toughswitch Pro in a box out in the weather. Given they stretch to 8 Km or whatever, I certainly wasn't asking for much. Solid 300 Mbit on the link, but with only a 100 Mbit Ethernet interface, that only meant I got the rated performance. I had another pair to bridge to a warehouse wing across 75 yards, but that was replaced with 2 x 1GB CAT-6 flooded, then replaced again with single mode fiber when we built a bunch more buildings on that wing. I did use a pair to bridge to a jobsite for a year or so, not even a half mile. They are smaller/cheaper than the Nanostations. ![]() I use Nano Loco M5's and see solid 100 Mbit throughput. ![]() Are there any other models that would give us better performance? Is 1Gb wireless connection an option? We have used other Ubiquiti products and we do like them. Accessing network resources in the main building is considerably quicker than from the remote office. Users can work with this speed but there is certainly room for improvement. Here is the performance we normally get between the offices (simulation writes and reads a 20MB file). We then replaced its PoE power supply which seems to have fixed the problem. We then replaced one of the units (one we could not even connect to its interface) which did not make any difference - connection still very slow. We rebooted both units but the slowness remained. Thank you to all of you who recommended the units 2 years ago! This morning, however, users reported network slowness. We connected the two buildings with 2 x Ubiquiti NanoStation M5s which have been very reliable. The new office accommodates around 30 people and it's about 60 meters away from the main building (with a clear line of sight). A couple of years ago we had to rent out an office next door as we could not fit in our main building.
