I live in a community where our means of internet is obtained through city WIFI and until last week I was having great success with it.
I bought the Engenius EOC-2610 and mounted it on my house. Pointed it twoards the city node and kicked up the output to 28db ( high as it would go ). I ran the cable into my house and hooked it up to my router and then connected my PC by ethernet.
Before last week I had a great connection with absolutely no problems running I think -57 to -65 signal and not sure on noise as I never payed much attention.
Now I am running -60 to -65 signal strength and -109 noise and I have a horrid connection that is slower than molasses. I thought the -109 noise was the problem, but really not sure as I dont know much about it.
I tried adding a DirectTV dish with my 2610 mounted to it, and it improved my signal strength , but noise was still at -108 to -109.
Now it seems I can do nothing to improve my situation.. wondering what you intelligent individuals think.
Its not very often I have to look up cuz somethings gone whoosh over my head lol Might need to contact the providers see if there is a problem. Where are you?
