Can someone comment on reliability of the link during AP and extender mode tests with the Halow? How long were you able to stay connected and if so what data rates were you observing?
Our use case requires continuous data transmission for 16 hours a day/7 days a week.
For me it drops between 20 minutes and 1.5hrs and with current software does not reconnect (have to unplug the extender to get it to reconnect) the units are approx 1km apart through woods. Works well when connected Halowlink 1 units. There is a update coming apparently to fix the issue.
12-20 mps data rates
The design was qualified by GL.iNet with a 24+ hr stability test which exhibited no issues. We also run multi-hour tests across devices through a sweep of attenuation values.
Anecdotally, I use the device every day at home for connectivity to part of the house traditional Wi-Fi doesn’t reach. To my knowledge it has never had an issue - though traffic isn’t continuous.
Scubas issue is unexpected, and we’re looking into why it is disconnecting after such a short time.
I am waiting for the new firmware mine is a different problem as it works fine for approx. an hour now then stops communicating not being able to access the dashboard on the extender makes this more frustrating. For now I have it hooked to a timer that power cycles the extender every 1.5 hours which keeps it working most of the time. The extender is in a hard to access location making this a pain hopefully we get new software soon.
