I have a eoc-2610 set up as an access point pointing at an ip camera. the camera is connected to a 10 dbi yagi antenna. The RSSI shows -102 dbm with the internal antenna and it works but not very good, but when you flip the switch to an external 4dbi omni antenna mounted right above it, I get -89 dbm and it works better. Could there be something wrong with the internal ant.? I just think the internal ant. should pick up much better than the omni. If anyone could help, thanks.
The internal antenna is awful, I opened an eoc 2610 up and what I found was a bit confusing.
The SMA antenna lead shield is soldered to the mainboard, but I can not see where or if the conductor is seperated or even connected at all. I have seen comparable radios and they are not like this. I can testify that the eoc 2610 is one of the poorest performing radios I have ever worked with and should not even be sold. In my opinion they are very falsley advertising the units capability and I am going to contact engenious and offer them the chance to correct the issue or I will be reporting them and their false claims to the better business bureau
correct you want to use the eoc-2610 with another 2610 in point to point mode or with a omni antenna attached in point to multipoint mode with any type of AP.
