mreidiv Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 I have not been getting clients connecting like i use to and i noticed my dBm is fluctuating from -30 dBm to -80+ dBm. I unplugged and replugged in the pigtail adapter tried 4 different antennas ranging from 8 dbi to 12 dbi. i can see a gain in dBm depending on the dbi of the antenna. but it is still fluctuating. Is this supposed to happen for some reason? Any suggestions on to resolve this i am on 2.7.5 firmware, I think my next try would be to change out the pig tail but i noticed the hackshop does not have one. Any suggestions on where to get one?

mreidiv Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 (edited) ok so i have ruled out the pigtail just put a new one it did increase the signal a little bit. But i have also narrowed it down to Karma when Karma is off and i am sitting right next to it i have -30 dbm when karma is on i have -76 dbm fresh flash to 2.8.0. Is Karma supposed to behave that way? and why does my signal keep fluctuating so much? any other ideas?
