So far so good, this post is brought to you via an Engenius 3220 EXT with an omnidirectional high gain antenna, hoisted 4 metres up the courtesy flag halyard, I am probably insulting an entire nation by hoisting such an ungainly mess but hey ho it was worth it to test the system.

I have no idea where the access point is located, it is a commercial alltelecom.fr access point.

The power over ethernet box is being fed by a 12v dc - 48 v dc converter plugged into a 12v socket on board. This means that the next test will be done underway to see just how far from the marina we can sail before losing signal.

We shall also do some comparison tests by hauling it up to the top of the mast (15 metres).
