It’s one of the ones with adjustable antennae - RB4011iGS+5HacQ2HnD-IN-US - and based on the pictures I have them pointing “up”.



Aren't Mikrotik part numbers just the most amazing things? For something like that, the antennas are omnis, the RF pattern coming off each one is an oval. Mostly vertical and maybe with the ones at the sides a bit at an angle is a good choice.

Visualize if you were to take a pencil and skewer it lengthwise through an oval shaped fruit, the fattest part of the fruit would be the highest gain part of the antenna's RF pattern.
