You think that single polarity might be the problem but why it doesn't cause problems in routers when there are 4 omni antennas and still you can get datarates 866Mbps by phone(my phone is 2x2). The testing distance now is 5km but the distance where they will be installed is 13km. We also have dozens of ubiquiti and mikrotik links and 13km it's not a big deal. <br>

I run dozens of long-range devices, and I'm seeing 2 issues in your setup:
1)
- Ack-to issues kick in starting from roughly 1000m. When you cannot
alter ack_to (coverage class), you will notice severe performance issues
above 1000m
2)
- Using identical polarization on all chains is an absolute performance
killer.
I have 2 devices, both 2x2 802.11n, HT40 SGI, which are only 150m
apart, all chains V polarized.
When running speedtests, inspecting ath9k rate control shows it is stuck
at the max speed for 1 chain (iso 2)
In my case it means the absolute link rate is 130Mbit iso 270 in this
configuration.
I can imagine using 4 chains will even reduce performance a lot more.
You should really try to use use H + V+ (-45) + (+45).
Also, ensure radio's at both sides have the chains on identical
polarization. (Chain0 - V, Chain1 - H, ..)
