Warning: long-winded story with catchy title which is misleading. The only reference to weather is that the service was "dropping out during wet weather." No further explanation is provided. They also cite another problem due to "tree foliage", but this has nothing to do with weather.

- onion2k 6y ago"contains water" wouldn't normally be enough to suggest something is weather, but this is Britain so it's actually a reasonable comment.
- walrus01 6y agoPtMP 3.5 or 3.65 services should never be implemented with non line of sight, or through trees. In a typical TDD airtime system, no matter what it is, one client out of twenty on an AP radio with poor signal (let's say, -77 on both chains) will consume more air time and drag down the performance of the entire AP. There's a reason why all the deployment guides for modern WISP PTMP radios are quite insistent on true clear fresnel zone between CPE radio and AP. But if I had a dollar for every shoddy 802.16d-2004 or 802.16e based WISP trying to shoot through thick foliage or even install CPEs inside peoples' windows....
