At iss1, I mounted the ubiquiti directly below the existing ubiquiti that connects to the Marshall network. I was worried about interference between the two nanobeams based on some info I had found on the internet, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. The lidar link is configured as point-to-point and I set a different SSID, so the lidar link shouldn't be able to connect to the Marshall network.
With the link working I still couldn't connect to the lidar, so I went back to troubleshoot. At one point when I was closing up the waterproof box I had bumped the reset button on the power strip, and I think that tripped something on the computer in the lidar because the lidar didn't come up again after that. The fans were working and the external power light was on, but the head wasn't moving and I couldn't ping or browse to the lidar. With some help from Bill (thanks Bill!) we found that pushing the reset and power buttons on the computer box in the lidar brought it back up. After that I verified that I could ping the lidar from iss1, as well as connect from the lidar laptop (now set up on the instrument network in iss1) and get live data.
