Climbed on the roof this arvo between rain showers and swapped out my old Minitar MNWAPB and replaced it with a Minitar MWGAP. Wet trees in the way does not help but I can ping Air-Stream-Skye again! Yippee!!
--- skye ping statistics ---
9 packets transmitted, 2 received, 77% packet loss, time 8000ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 1313.242/1549.589/1785.937/236.350 ms, pipe 2
Seems that the transmit part of the radio in the MNWAPB failed as though I could site survey fine and the unit reported as "connected" I could never pass a packet. Air-Stream-Skye admin told me that my node was "not there" and when I set the MNWAPB up as an AP it did not work.
Anyway, nice to be passing packets again and I'll keep saving my pennies for a better setup.
