Two 1242ag bridge with 5gz at 800'

I need to bridge from our office to our shop that is around 800 feet away.  Here are the Details
I need the 2.4 ghz antenna for client access (Iphones are not compatiable with 802.11a)
The locations are 800 feet away but are line of sight.
I need to use the 5ghz antenna for the bridge
i have 2 aironet 1242ag's
I have 2 2.4 ghz AIR-ANT3213 antennas (planned for client access)
I have 2 2.4 ghz AIR-ANT2506 (maybe useless for this)
My problem is that the range of all the listed 5 ghz antennas.  None that i can find will bridge 54mb over the 5ghz radio for greater than 170ft
The closest that i can find is AIR-ANT5195.  If i put these on both sides and it is outdoors line of sight, will the best i can hope for is functioning and 6mb
are there any other antennas that would be a better fit? Are there options on 5ghz that i am missing.
Thanks,
Kevin

Get yourself a pair of cheap tranzeo bridges. They are small light and do the trick. They are self contained units so no need for extra antennas etc ... I just hooked up a pair with Cisco APs on each end for end user connections. We are about 800 feet away as well, but we have LOS. I dont know what you have to puch through but i think not having LOS will be a bigger issue ..

  • Bridge with two Cisco AP's

    Hello Everyone,
    So I have a scenario here and I’m wondering if this plan I have will work flawlessly or is there anything I have to lookout for?
    So I'm going to bridge two Cisco AP's 1260 and 3500, which have an 880 router on each side.
    (Currently I have a VPN set-up through the internet for the two locations to communicate)
    (Naturally they are currently in different subnets)
    Will absolutely change this and set up as one subnet.
    There is VLANs setup on each router (same VLANs)
    VLAN 1
    And
    VLAN 10
    Everything is configured on the Routers and AP's for these VLANs (works flawlessly over the VPN).
    So now since I’m going to get rid of the VPN and set-up a bridge with two AP's, will having same VLANs across both routers be a problem?
    Will VLANs work OK through the bridge?
    Besides using (IP helper address DHCP-IP) command on the non-root bridge side router to forward DHCP requests to the root bridge side router,
    Is there anything else I have to consider?
    Also I want to be able to route internet traffic on the non-root bridge side through the WAN port, and only route LAN traffic through the bridge...
    Will I have to use Access list for this?
    Sorry everyone...
    I know this is a lot I'm throwing out there...
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards,
    Ed

    Also, if the IP Helper command is used to relay DHCP request to the root bridge side router.....
    will the VLAN settings (trunks) on non-root bridge side router work ok since I will need to remove the DHCP pools configured there...... Or is it a better idea to keep it there and just exclude addressees that are available to the other side, and vice versa???
    I say this because the non-root bride is also going to serve for wireless clients as well, and has VLANs setup on it so I'm guessing the non-root bridge side router needs the DHCP pools for both VLANs intact, for VLANs to operate correctly.
    Please give me your insight on this....

  • 1242AG to 1242AG bridge problem

    Hi,
    I have problem setting up a wireless bridge between two 1242AG APs. When i set either of them to any role different than Access Point or Root Bridge i get the interface Software status: Disabled and Hardware: Down. Can anyone tell what is it i am doing wrong ?

    With the 1240 APs you should be able to configure a point to point bridge configuration. Multipoint bridge mode is not supported on this AP. What is the IOS version that you are running on the APs?

  • Two root bridge in same network

    Dear Team,
    As I checked, there are two root bridge in the same LAN.
    We have 6500 which is manually configured as root bridge and this is showing root for all the vlans in the network. Once switch connected to 6500 through 4500 is showing root for the vlans that not assigned to any of the port. Please help to clear it.

    Here, I have not assigned any port in vlan 2 and this is showing root bridge for vlan 2. In which cases such thing can happen?
    Thank You,
    Abhisar.

    By default, Cisco switches run one spanning tree instance per VLAN and negotiate the topology with other connected switches. If your 3560 believes it is the root for VLAN 2 and there are no ports using VLAN 2, it will consider itself the to be the root because it hasn't been able to negotiate a topology for this VLAN with any other devices. This is normal. Once ports are connected to VLAN 2 and the 3560 can talk to the other switches, the spanning tree will be renegotiated and should behave as you expect.
    If you want to have a single spanning tree topology for all VLANs and avoid this behaviour, consider moving to a single-instance MSTP configuration.

  • Creating two seperate networks with 2 time capsules?

    So i currently have two time capsules. The first one is bridged with my dsl modem and is acting as my internet gateway and backup for my main imac and macbook which are connected wirelessly as well as a file server with addition external harddrive connected via usb.
    I want to connect an additional timecapsule via ethernet and use it to create a seperate wireless network that allows my guests, kids macbook and any of his hooligan friends to connect. The second time capsule will allow my kid to back his macbook up. I dont want this network to be able to access my up stream network with my main imac and macbook because I will not be issuing poeple access to it except myself and will lock it down with MAC address filtering.
    I am worried as my kid or any guests I allow to access my network can or will be able to reach my main computers and I want to prevent that. Is this possible with two time capsules?

    Now if this setup will reduce the NAT doubleing issue on the ps3, xbox and apple tv's thats good?
    Should work as long as you understand that these devices are connecting to the Guest Network on your "main" TC. How well wireless will work going through all the obstructions is open to question.
    You will also be sacrificing half of the bandwidth on your "main" TC when you enable the Guest Network feature.
    There will still be a Double NAT for devices that are connected to TC #2.
    My next question is how do I allow everyone to see my ethernet printer? Plug it into TM#2 ethernet port?
    Not sure what you mean by "everyone".
    If you plug it into the TC #2 Ethernet, devices on the TC #2 network will be able to see it, but not devices on the "main" TC network.  Reason....TC #2 is on a different subnet than TC #1......unless you want to setup TC #2 in Bridge Mode.
    If it were me, I would password protect all computers and devices on the "main" network, except the printer. Then, connect TC #2 in Bridge Mode and call it a day. 
    Users on TC #2 will be able to "see" other devices on the TC #1 network, but not connect to them unless they have the password for the device.

  • Bridge with 2 x Aironet 2602e

    Hi -
    I'm trying to configure two Aironet 2602e (with external antennas) to form a bridge between two buildings. I can't figure out how to get them to run faster than 54 Mbit between them. Currently they just sit at my desk in a test-setup. I think, I should maybe set them up as Workgroup-bridges instead of root-to-non-root, but I don't get other speed options than those 54 Mbit. Also I think it should be done at 5 GHz radio.
    Could it be something with encryption mode or is it only possible through CLI or...
    Please help

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
    For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

  • I can't get Dr Browns Image Processor Pro to work from Bridge with Photoshop CC 2014

    We use the wonderful DR Browns Image Processor Pro script a lot, but cannot get it to work from Bridge with PS CC 2014. When I select files in Bridge CC and then go to Tools> Dr Browns Services 2.3.1 > Image Processor Pro it just pops up an error message that says ReferenceError: photoshop is undefined.
    The actual script works fine if I launch it from Photoshop CC 2014 - just not if I load it from Bridge CC.
    I have unistalled it and re installed a few times, both manually and through the Extension Manager CC.
    I am using a Win 7 64bit computer.
    I assume there is some change in the scripting part that loads Photoshop from bridge but not sure. It worked fine in CC. Just not CC 2014.
    I opened the Dr Browns Services .jsx file but don't see anything obvious. This is the section related to the Image Processor Pro part:
      // This routine takes an array of files. If called by Photoshop,
      // it will invoke Dr. Brown's Process 1-2-3 with the files. If called by
      // any other app, it will send a BridgeTalk message to Photoshop
      // to invoke this routine with the same arguments.
    drbrownserv.process123 = function (files) {
    // Bring Photoshop to the foreground.
      BridgeTalk.bringToFront ("photoshop");
      // Create a new BridgeTalk message for Photoshop to invoke
      // Image Processor with the selected files
      var btMessage = new BridgeTalk;
    btMessage.target = "photoshop";
      btMessage.body = "drbrownserv.process123 (" + files.toSource () + ");";
      btMessage.send ();
      } else {
    photoshop.runActionCommand ('611736f0-9c46-11e0-aa82-0800200c9a66', files);
      catch (error) {
      if (error.number != 8007) // Don't report user cancelled errors.
      drbrownserv.alert (error);

    I copied that .jsx file to a new name "Xbytor Image Processor Pro.jsx" edit that file changed the string Dr Browns services to "Xbytor Image Processor Pro" then commented out all the code that added tools menu items but "Image Processor Pro" and I put that file into
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Startup Scripts CC\Adobe Bridge" even though Bridge CC is 64Bit seems to use theat location.
    Bridge CC was updated by the creative clouds update and opens Photoshop CC 2014 now

  • How do I use two external monitors with my laptop?

    I have a new Pavilion dm4-301 d cl Entertainment PC.   My OS is Windows 7.   I am used to using two external monitors with a docking station.   This new laptop does not have a docking station.  What do I need to get  to use two external monitors? 
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Certainly not without a dock but even with, HP laptop docks pretty well limit you to one of the external monitor ports, even if there are two on the dock. We have used a device called an Atlona AT-HDPIX2 which is a usb to hdmi adapter. It provides a third monitor capability for a laptop....use the native external monitor port and the internal laptop display and then this device gives a third monitor which is full configurable from the Windows 7 display interface...clone, extend, etc. It allows full HD resolution and is responsive enough for even light gaming.  HP makes no true docking station for your laptop.

  • How to use Two main windows with in a page in script ?

    Hi any body explain me...
    How to use Two main windows with in a page in script ?
    with  header data in one main window,
    & Item data in other main window.

    HI..,
    u need to go for <b>SPLITTING THE MAIN WINDOW</b> !!!
    Main windows in page windows allow you to format text in multiple columns. Define an area in the page window, in which to position the main windows.
    Here is the procedure !!
    -->Create a page window and assign it to a page.
    Choose <b>Edit --> Main windows</b>.
    A dialog box appears.
    -->Enter values in the fields <b>Area width</b> and A<b>rea height</b> in accordance with the input guidelines for main windows.
    -->Enter values in the fields <b>Spacing</b> and Number in the <b>Horizontal group</b> if you want to use multiple columns. You can ignore the fields in the Vertical group.
    Determine how many columns and line areas are required for label printing. Then enter the corresponding values in the fields in the <b>Horizontal and Vertical groups</b>.
    -->The value in the field Left margin varies from main window to main window if multiple columns are used. The following applies:
    <b>
    Left margin of current column + Window width + Horizontal spacing = Left margin of next column</b>
    In label printing, the field Upper margin also varies from main window to main window:
    <b>
      Upper margin of current main window +  Window height + Vertical spacing = Upper margin of next main window</b>
    -->Enter a value in the field Start position.
    This is a counter. Enter a starting value which is equal to or greater than 1.
    -->The main windows are added to the list.
    -->Save your form.
