I've got an AIR-ANT2506 external antenna mounted on the side of a metal building.
Oh nuts. This is not gonna sound good.
The ANT2506 is a 2.4Ghz omni-directional antenna. If you point the antenna to your face, for instance, the signal is a near perfect circle, however, pair this with "the side of a metal building" and you've just literally turned an omni-directional antenna to a directional antenna.
Also, what's the recommended height for the AP to be mounted?
Maximum height is 10 feet. Make sure your antenna has clear line-of-sight. Any metalic or concrete obstruction can disperse the wireless signal.
