Antenna adjusting
From DD-WRT Wiki
Contents |
In this guide i show u how to adjust p2p or p2mp antenna systems with atheros based systems.
There are many ways to check your connection. Some work out of the box. Others not ;-)
[edit] Site_survey
In the DD-WRT u can see the surrounding AP's with the site survey.This also works on the cli
site_survey
Note that surveys and Access Point mode are incompatible. The commands below disable AP mode for the survey and return it to what it was before
q=$(wl ap); wl ap 0; site_survey; wl ap $q
[edit] WiViz
This tool shows u all surrounding clients and ap's
[edit] athstats
athstats -h
shows u the traffic stats of all local interfaces
[edit] Antenna adjusting
if u want to adjust antenns which are far away or have small beams u need a tool which shows u the current level and snr every sec while u are adjusting the antenna.
while sleep 1; do wlanconfig athX list | grep "mac address of the other station" ; done
