1. A method for providing proactive aiming assistance guidance information at a wireless node, wherein the wireless node is connected to a plurality of external antennas, comprising the steps of:

  • (a) positioning the plurality of external antennas in respective initial orientations;

    (b) determining proactive aiming assistance guidance information to provide proactive guidance for reorienting each of the plurality of external antennas from the initial orientation to a desired deployment configuration;

    (c) reorienting the plurality of external antennas in accordance with the proactive aiming assistance guidance information as provided by a user interface of the wireless node to achieve the desired deployment configuration calculated to provide a wireless link having one or more desired attributes;

    wherein the proactive aiming assistance guidance information includes rotation directions and tilt directions;

    wherein the rotation directions correspond to directions to rotate the plurality of external antennas into the desired deployment configuration respectively; and

    wherein the tilt directions correspond to directions to tilt the plurality of external antennas into the desired deployment configuration respectively.
