For example, in the US on the 2.4 GHz band, with one watt of output you are limited to 6 dBi of antenna gain for an EIRP of 4 watts (36 dBm). You can, however, have use a much higher gain antenna if you reduce your transmitter power. This combination results in a much greater allowed EIRP than with a one watt transmitter - 158 watts EIRP (52 dBm). On the 5.8 GHz band, the FCC generally restricts EIRP to 4 watts or less but there are lots of caveats for this spectrum segment. | |

Over a distance of 4 km. I do not see any limitations, however practice has shown that throughput speeds may vary with variable weather conditions. E.g. heave rain downpour will affect bandwidth and speed. | |
