The antenna I tested was a 9dB antenna made by KENBOTONG...

My choice of antenna comes from a sad story involving a hopeless test on another wireless bridge (allegedly long range) that was a disaster because the firmware did not include a survey function.... so there was no way you could use it as a mobile device.... the Engenius as you know is more flexible than that.
By the way...... I found that the 3220 can get its knickers in a twist and share iits IP address with the access point it locks on to. When this happens you can't log into the Engenius to conduct admin functions because when you enter the Engenius IP it routes you directly to the AP instead. This happened to me and the AP it was locked on to was still set to its default username and password which was how I realised that the 3220 had shared its IP address.... let this be a lesson for us all...... change the username and password of your devices from default as soon as you first fire them up or you may find someone else fiddling with your settings.
Happy sailing
