WRT54 GL woth one OMNI Antenna ?

Hi all,
  I have router Linksys WRT54 GL, and i have 17dbi, Omni antenna compatible for this tipe of router. 
    How to connect and work property on one of any connector of them, to send and receive corect signal?
   Thank you.

Well its hard to find on which antenna you will be connected and which antenna will be sending you the RX or TX data. May be you can search of google and you might find any software which finds out which wireless antenna is sending RX or TX data.

  • Stupid question regarding 1252 & antennas...

    I'm deploying some 1252 AP's for outdoor use.  The actual radios will be inside, but I plan to use AIR-ANT2506 omnidirectional antennas mounted outside for 2.4GHz coverage.  I'm assuming that I'm only supposed to use one omni antenna per radio - is that correct?  Or can I mount one omni on the outside NE corner of the building and another omni on the SW corner of the building and have them on the same 1252 radio?
    I wasn't sure how the multiple antenna connections worked with omni antennas.
    -Nick

    You need to connect one AIR-ANT2506 to each of the three connectors on the 2.4Ghz radio. These three antennas should be mounted as on this picture: https://supportforums.cisco.com/servlet/JiveServlet/download/1315959-35656/DSC02825.JPG
    Minimum distance between left and right antennas should be around 5" and maximum should be around 20". The middle antenna should be in the middle.
    That picture has both 2.4ghz (bottom three) and 5ghz (top three) antennas, but you would only have the bottom three if you only need 2.4ghz.
    Since you have 1252 (both 2.4ghz and 5ghz radios), you should probably get six antennas as on the picture. For the 5ghz, you should get three antennas that are graded for 5ghz radio.
    And no, you can't just put those antennas in different areas to "increase" coverage, all three antennas are meant for a single coverage cell.

  • 1 antenna with 3502p

      Dear All,
    Question: If I use just one omni antenna AIR-ANT2506 instead of the recommended three with the  AIR-CAP3502P-E-K9, will it work? If yes will it affect the range of the signal ? or just performance ?
    Thanks

    You loose diversity so reliability can be an issue. You loose ClientLink so it will affect the coverage your clients may get at the edge of your cell. Single antenna is okay for outdoor applications but not recommended for indoor.

  • Omni and sector antenna

    1410 x 4
    sector antenna x 4
    three sites.... two root bridges on tope of hq, and two non-root bridges one for each remote sites
    root1 -> remote site 1 (3km)
    root2 -> remote site 2 (1.5km)
    the above mentioned setup is working fine.
    to save one ap+antennax2, replaced one sector with an omni.
    so, now...
    1410 x 3
    omni x 1 (headquarters) part# AIR-ANT58G9VOA-N
    sector x 2 (remote sites)
    root1 -> remote site 1 (3km)
    root1 -> remote site 2 (1.5)
    upon replacing the root bridge antenna from sector to omni, the following occured:
    1. lost connection between root bridge and the switch.
    2. show cdp on switch will not show the bridge.
    3. show cdp on bridge will not show the switch.
    4. switchport status is up and led is lit normal.
    5. connecting to the root bridge... connection to the remote bridge is ok, remote bridge is associated and pingable. but after a while connection will be lost.
    6. a bridge power reset will restore the connection but the problem will come again after some time. with power reset i'm unable to see the logs.
    7. some times an hour, and sometimes after 10 - 12 hours before the problem occurrs again.
    8. installed the omni antenna upward, on top of pole... same problem.
    9. installed the omni downward (close to pole)... same probem.
    10. installed the omni downward (away from pole with 0.5m metal arm)... same problem.
    11. replaced the power injector... same problem.
    12. replaced the patch cord from root bridge to switch....  this lasted for more than 12 hours and the problem came back.
    13. switch show log only show that there has been a switchport reset on the port where the root bridge is connected.
    14.
    what coudl be the problem here.
    thanks, experts!

    Can you please give us some more info so we get better understanding.
    - If sector antenna are working fine then why to replace one of them?
    - Why using sector antenna? why not directional antennas?
    - Provide - if possible - a simple sketch about how your bridges are connected ( I currently imagine that the HQ is in the middle and there is one root bridge on each side of it one bridge communicates with another non-root bridge and all 3 buildings are -almost- on straight ilne).
    - What vendor/model of sector antennas you use?
    I would say seeing the switchport issue is not normal. The bridge should not normally disappear from the switch port.
    What I suggest is to upgrade the IOS if it is not already on lates version (read the release notes of the newer release before using it to upgrade).

  • Dual-band Omni External Antenna

    Hello,
    Can someone recommend me a dual-band omni antenna for connection to a Cisco 3600? For use indoors.
    I have found this:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/antenna/installation/guide/ant2544v4m-r.html
    But it seems a bit overkill for what I need. All I want is a small profile indoor antenna I can connect to the AP.
    I require the antenna so that the AP can be mounted vertically with the antenna sticking out the top so as to create the correct coverage pattern
    Thanks

    http://www.intermec.com/public-files/product-profiles/en/CiscoAntennasAccessories_spec_web.pdf
    Hi Kashif,
    This document link you've posted is already OUTDATED.   All the antenna's in this PDF are valid up to the AP1250.  The antenna required for the 3600, as what is stated by the OP, is totally different.
    Antennas for the newer generation of Cisco APs which are dual-band radios, go here.

  • Can you use an external antenna with the 4G LTE Router with Voice?

    I live in a black hole of cell service - very rural, in a valley surrounded by trees, no DSL, no cable, no other options except satellite internet which I did for 15 years and will never do again. My current data setup is a Pantech UML290 USB modem connected to a Cellphone-Mate full band outdoor Omni 3G/4G antenna on the roof. I just ordered an amplifier to boost the 4G LTE connection. The modem is plugged into a Cradlepoint MBR900 router, which then provides my home internet (way more than 10 devices, and mostly wired).
    Is there a way to add the antenna and amplifier setup to the broadband router with voice so I can be assured of the signal? If so, could I then use this router to feed the Cradlepoint and continue using multiple wired devices?
    I was set to order this router last night, but the CSR through chat told me that you cannot attach antenna to the router with voice - only to the one with data. This really doesn't make any sense to me, but she was firm about it. If I can attach, can I use the cables I have or will I need a different adapter?
    There is so little information about this particular router. My current setup is doing fairly well, but I would love the option to drop my landline and increase signal strength for both voice and data. With no antenna, the modem gets around -125 db, and can't connect at all. With the antenna mounted on the roof, and routed through the Cradlepoint, I consistently get -85 db. 4G LTE speeds are around 15-19 Mb/s down and very inconsistent 2.5-4.0 Mb/s up. However, the 4G drops and resets multiple times a day, so I usually sacrifice the speed to get a more stable 4.5-5 Mb/s down and 0.5 Mb/s up through forced 3G.
    Voice calls are spotty if received at all, and frequently drop immediately if there is any connection. And of course, the data limit has been a nightmare. I could potentially save some money by porting my landline to Verizon, but not if there is no way to boost the signals. The Omni antenna will boost all, but not sure if there's any way to route the existing antenna setup to feed both the voice and data sides, or if it would be enough to allow me to do this. This router also says it's 4G LTE only, but the specs on the antenna they sell say it boosts 3G for failover, so not sure if it will grab anything else. Any help or advice GREATLY appreciated! Thanks for reading through the whole thing.

    No, not directly. You would need to transfer your data from your iPad to your Mac and then back it up to an external drive.

  • Antenna Selection for High ceiling (Warehouse)

    i read nearly 500 topic on antenna selection for high ceiling and industrial warehouse environments  (~10m ceiling)
    Question1 : both ant2544v4  and Ant2524 has ~60 degrees Elevation plane 3 dB beamwidth does it mean this Omni antenna could be mounted on 10m height without coverage issue ?
    Question2:suppose installing plenty of 2702 with Ant2524 or Ant2544V4 in close adjacency , does CleanAir2 helps to avoid interference ?
    Question3:if i want avoid directional antennas to cover aisles using dipoles is the last solution ? (if omni antenna cant afford enough elevation due to its nature )
    my warehouse area is something like this : http://www.pathguide.com/Images/Content/warehouse%20aisle.jpg
    thanks

    As I can see this location presents challenging RF conditions: high attenuations, reflections, multipath, etc. The fact that you need to implement Voice WLAN too, introduces more difficulties.
    You have to conduct a wireless site survey. I don't know how much experience do you have with this activity or if you have the equipment and site survey tools required, but it has to be done.
    In the worst case scenario you have to grab at least one or two APs from the model that you intend to install, set them up in stand alone mode with some test SSIDs and install them in the warehouse in different locations. Than you walk arround and try to measure the signal quality and attenuations. You cand use some free or trial site survey applications that can be found on the Internet.
    You have to find out what protocol (802.11 a/b/g/n) the barcode scanners are using and what TX power are they capable of. You should set up your APs accordingly (the AP TX power should not exceed the client power, preferably it should be about half in order to benefit of CHD). The same has to be done for the Voice clients. The survey has to be done separately for each 802.11 protocol. I recommend taht you do some futher reading on the subject.
    As for the antenna type, Cisco recommends directional antennas in high ceiling environments. However, I have installed 2702e APs with standard omni antennas in warehouses and they did the job very well. The difference in my case was that I installed the APs on cable channels at ~6-7 meters, not directly on the ceiling. Maybe you can find some other mounting possibilities besides the ceiling if you want to stick to omni antennas.
    The co-channel interference between adjacent APs is avoided usualy by DCA and TPC not as much by CleanAir. However in 2.4 GHz there could be some interferences.
    As a conclution you have to use some real APs in order to estimate, with at least a minimal accuracy, the position and number of required APs for the deployment. Do not forget about the cabling requirements for the APs, distances to the closest switch, electrical power etc. 

  • Aironet 1252 Antenna quantity

    Hi There,
    I already have an Aironet 1252 and I am going to increase the coverage.
    I would like to buy "AIR-ANT24120" but I dont know if I have to buy 3 of them or only would be enough?

    Let me try to answer your questions:)
    Did you decide to use lmr600 for longer cables and lmr400 for  shorter? I could just use lmr600 for all, I think. Of course, as long as  the holes in the wall allow for six lmr600's to fit in.
    The cost between the two is huge, so when I was 75' or less, I would use the lmr400, anything else would be the lmr600.
    Not  familiar with what it takes to crimp on RP-TNC vs. N-type connector. Is  N-type easier to crimp on? Or is there another reason?
    If you can have the cabler's only have to deal with one type of crimp.... the easier the install and that is why we did that.  Sparco arrestors were 'N" type and then we used a small jumper from the top of the NEMA enclosure to the AP which of course was rp-tnc.
    I  just noticed that omni antenna has SMA connector, but it also says  "connector options available". I'll talk to them, hopefully they have an  N-connector option. Otherwise, not sure about crimping SMA connector.
    They offer other connector types.
    Duly  noted on the tilt and arrestors. I want to protect the AP. I don't  think I'll be using enclosures inside, the AP might just be mounted on  the wall. In this case. If my LMR has N-type on both ends. I would have  to attach RP-TNC arrestor directly to the AP (I'm using 3500e), then  attach a RP-TNC to N-type adapter, and then connect the N-type LMR. Or I  might just end up using enclosures as in your example with N-type  arrestor.
    They have small jumpers so you can go from 'N' type to RP-TNC.  We used a NEMA enclosure just so it is more clean.  the arrestors actually just screwed into the top of the NEMA enclosure, 3 toward the fron and 3 toward the back and the console and ethernet connection on the bottom.

  • WAP200E and WAP200 as repeaters, external antennas, poor signal

    I am having some weird things happen...
    I have setup a WAP200E external w/o optional antenna and using (2) WAP200 internal units in separate buildings setup as repeaters.  I have added a external
    Yagi 10Dbi directional antenna to both repeaters with short cables and using the standard antenna for the internal wireless needs.
    Both buildings are about 200' line of sight from the WAP200E with a angle of less then 45 degrees from the WAP200E,
    I am getting a signal that continually jumps from 20% - 60% Channel keep changing etc...  looks like a typically poor signal connection
    I am able to access the internet from either repeater, but not reliably
    Question 1: External Antenna....
    I was going to install a similar external Yagi antenna on WAP200E but I was reading that the external antenna in turned on automatically when the WAP200E
    senses a antenna. Cisco only certifies one particular antenna to connect to the WAP200E and that is the  HGA9N which is a 9DBI omni directional antenna
    I would much rather use a directional antenna, but I was reading that the WAP200E may not reconize any other antenna's, plus I cant find any way to determine if the WAP200E actually turns on the external antenna.   Does anyone have any experience using the WAP200E with external antennas?
    Question 2:
    SSID's on repeaters
    On the WAP200E and WAP200 units, It show that that repeaters can have unique SSID's I tested them using the same SSID as the A/P and also with unique SSID's  Which approach would be the more reliable?
    Question 3:
    Freq Channels setting:
    Typically I would set the channel to be fixed on all three units to keep them from hopping from channel to channel. Is my logic correct?
    Is there any way to determine which channel is the best, beside trial and error?
    Also, can I lock the speed to a slower setting to help improve reliability?
    Question 4:
    Bridging:
    I was considering setting up one of the repeaters as a bridge can the WAP200E A/P handle communicating with a bridge and a repeater at the same time?
    Does anyone have any experience using these as bridges?  I see a few issues online regarding briging with these units
    Wireless is tough enough, but flakey wireless product can make you wish had a wire
    Firmware... 1.20 on the WAP200E A/P unit.. I guess I will try 1.20a but the blogs say it doesnt matter
    Firmware on the WAP200 unit is unknown at the moment
    Thanks in advance

    Update...
    After speaking with Linksys support staff, they informed me that the antenna jacks on the WAP200 are slightly different
    One jack is TX & RX and the other jack is RX only...
    It is not documented or labeled as such on the device.
    The support person told me it was the right jack when facing the rear of the unit with the network jack facing you. but this is the way I
    had it configured... so for giggles I swapped the antenna jacks and presto it works fine
    Many thanks

  • Wrt54g version 8 and non removable antennas

    Campground that we stay at and helped set up the wifi has a wrt54g with an external directional antenna for remote users. and one regular rubber duck anteanna for local wireless users in the office. Further out in the campground there is a wap54g with a directional attenna pointed towards the wrt54g and an omni antenna for uses in that area to receive a good signal.
    The wrt548 may be having issues, so the owner purchased a replacement one, however the new wrt54g is version 8, which does not have removeable antennas. Does anybody have an idea on where once can find a previous version, or suggestion on what other Linksys gear coupld be used to replace the setup that he has now.

    Not true, I had this run around with Linksys a year ago..
    Almost the same thing. We were setting up a campsite and had a WRT54Gs and a WAP54G and we could not get it to work. One tech said it would one said it wouldn't.
    The had me try all kinds of configuration including fixed IPs. Nothing. And I"m a reseller and Partner (not anymore).
    Bottom line, after threats I got an engineer and here is the story ... It will not work.
    We swapped out the router with a 'G' instead of a 'GS' aand it worked first try.
    Second, Version 8 does not have removable antennas, only thru version 6.

  • Antenna Gains with 1240

    I have a customer with the habit to use Hyperlink Antennas with the Cisco Radios.
    I would like to know the pros and cons to use for example a aironet 1240 with an omni 2.4Ghz 12dBi, cisco lighting protector and original cables versus the same 1240 with an hyperlink 8dBi 2.4Ghz omni antena, hyperlink cables and lighting protectors....
    I need the calculation of the total gain on each case if is possible.
    Thanks.
    RJB.

    The information provided is a little superficial for any in-depth discussion.
    However, depending on the local laws and regulations (and enforcement of same), the significance of complete Cisco (as a system) versus Cisco with third-party parts usually boils down to certification.
    In the USA, The AP, cabling, antennas, and peripheral parts are tested and certified as a system. If you substitute a substantial component with one that has not been tested as part of the overall / complete system, it may not be certified / authorized to operate without a specific compliance inspection.
    The regulations were recently amended (last year or so) so that a third-party component that is substantially identical can be substituted without the need for re-certification.
    So, IF there are similar regulations where this customer is, and IF they are enforced to a degreee that the customer would worry about it, then the 'Rules and Regulations" argument is probably your strongest lever.
    Aside from that, parts made to operate within this kind of system *will* operate ... the question is "are they operating at an optimum level?" ... and there's no way to judge that without surveying the location.
    Most folks that don't know any better just assume that if you swap in an antenna with twice the gain, you get double the signal strength and everything else stays the same, you know (I hope you know) that that is not the case; the entire coverage pattern has to change, at least on one plane.
    So you might fix the system one way and break it in another ... only a survey will give you the true way it is.
    Also, strike the phrase "Lightning Protectors" from your discussion; they cannot and will not protect any part of your system if it is struck (or experiences a "near hit") from lightning.
    They are, at best, a static drain. They can assist in charge dissipation, which *may* SLIGHTLY reduce the chance of a direct hit.
    A segment of fiber between the roof-mounted stuff and the inside stuff is always your best protection from a lightning hit.
    Good Luck

    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.
