WDR-4300 weak signal strength with 18DBi antennas
Region : Argentina
Model : TL-WDR4300
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version :
ISP :
Hi all,
Having an issue with an installation connection 3 4300 routers using WDS.
I have a single 18DBi Yagi style antenna on the 2 remote routers and 2 on the core router plus larger 8DBi Omni's in the place of the standards.
Getting very low signal 11DB on 1 and slow pings 300-600ms from the closest external router with a distance of approx 50m
No signal on the 2nd external router (approx 100m) despite decent line of site..antennas seemed to make no difference and I was picking up other non amped, non tp-link WAP's at much greater signal strength 20+DB so quite dissapointed with that.
At a bit of a loss to explain why the netgear dgn2200 with standard ant has 2x the signal strength of my tp-links with extended omnis and yagi?
Anyone provide some advice on this?
