Hello everyone,
Can you obtain the system logs, including signal strength, from BlueBoat? Our BlueBoat occasionally loses Wi-Fi connection with the base station, both at long and short distances. Therefore, we should analyze the data.
Best,
Hi @makito -
Welcome to the forums!
Yes, you can download system logs from the gear in the lower left of BlueOS, and view them with this tool. You can download autopilot logs from the correct menu in BlueOS as well.
Neither of these logs will contain any information on WiFi signal strength…you can monitor this in the Mikrotik radio interface in the browser at 192.168.2.3. Blue Robotics will be releasing a cellular modem upgrade kit before the end of the month that can make range anxiety a thing of the past!
What region are you operating in? Have you considered using a directional antenna on the BaseStation?
Hi @tony-white
Thank you for your swift reply. I was able to download the system logs from BlueOS and understand that we can’t get signal strength data from them. We will monitor the Mikrotik radio interface as you suggested.
On the other hand, is there another method to analyze the issue of losing Wi-Fi connection?
By the way, our region is Japan. We use a directional antenna, but we didn’t change the gain value during the previous BlueBoat operation.
Thanks,
