Hello Friend - Happy Saturday !! - This video was amazing and super helpful. Do the PtP Ubiquiti dishes have to be within a certain proximity of the Starlink dish or the Mesh Router? We have tried to connect the ethernet adapter/mesh router to a Ubiquiti dish that is hardlined via CAT 6 cable about 300 feet away. So we are having connectivity issues to the Point A dish... in close proximity to the Starlink dish & Mesh Router it connects almost immediately -- however 300 feet away --- not working.

[@jeffwismer2941]

Ok I figured out the above -- the answer from the Ubiquit forum is that YES the dish needs to be in close proximity to the Mesh Router ---so it is captured in the "net bubble" of signal strength... NOW.. we have a NEW new issue... We have set up 2 sets of Ubiquiti dishes --- First set : Point A --> B .... Second Set: Point C --> D We tried using a splitter to connect both dishes to the Starlink Ethernet adapter which is connected to the MESH Router ... and that DOES NOT WORK - unfortunately .... Are you aware of any work-around to that issue???

[@jeffwismer2941]

I think I need to try to connect the two (2) sets of dishes using an ethernet switch -- I will try a 5 port gigabyte ethernet switch and see if that works

Does the power need adjustment or is it always best to set it to max as you show? I have a 700m ptp link. How do you tell if the signal is good or bad and how can we improvei it? It woule be nice to have some info or even a video about these settings!

[@wifilabxyz]

keep it full initially during the installation, it will help a little when doing an alignment. once you are good, reduce it if the signal is too strong. for a 700m link, -60 to -50dbm signal should be ok and keep the chain difference of not more than 3dbm.

[@cosimopanoni5356]

@@wifilabxyz thank you for your quick reply. Could you please explain or link something about "chain difference"? Is it the difference between the power of the two stations? I thought they needed to be the same (for example 15 on pointA and 15 on pointB)

[@wifilabxyz]

the chain difference can be found next to the local and remote signal of each antenna, it has a delta sign and color as well. green means ok, orange means a little alignment is needed and red means very bad signal, maybe more height is needed, the alignment is off or there is no clear LoS.
