Hello to all,

Could anybody tell me if there is some option on DWL-2000AP / AP+ to
select the antenna use?

On DWL-900ap+ you can select Diversity, Left or Rigth depending if you
are going to use external antennas for ourdoor use for example.

Thanks in advance !

Yes, it is not into the help functions..
I asked the same question to the helpdesk from DLINK.
This is a "future" extension..
(the inner antenne is used for "other" testing applications within
the acces point.. -reflections, phase shift etc..)

Hi Hubert,

Oh, ... then I have no idea what could be happening to my bridge
installation with DWL-2000AP+ ... They simply hang several times per day
and i need to reset them. I have the same problem with 900AP+, but at
least with them, I could test changing the antenna to RIGTH. Then the
stability of the link was improved, but I still with the hangs.

I explain the problem 3 post below.

Thanks anyway for your response.

Regards,

You can try downloading the newest firmware...
Maybe it helps...
If they are located at the same place, try also on complete different
channels..
for example the 2000 on channel 1 and the 900 on channel 13.
Try also with smaller fragmentation ( smaller blocks..) 256 and not
2346... and a smaller beacon interval... (my installation is now stable)
And: preamble short, 11 g only enabled (if possible...)
Succes!
Hubert
