Hello all,
I searched the forum and didn't find any post about this issue.
Hope this post is not a duplicate. If so, please just point me to the other post.
Here's the scenario:
{homelan}--->[mikrotic CPE](<--radio link-->)[mikrotic PTP-bridge]<---
---{officelan}--->[mikrotik 2011iLS]-nat-->[adsl router]-nat-again-->{internet}
The two mikrotik radio boxes between the homelan and the officelan:
- are SXT 5HPnD r2 (webfig v6.38.1, fw: 3.33)
- do not NAT
(systems in the office lan need to know what Ip at home is requesting services)
. office lan is 192.168.5.0/24
. home lan is 192.168.3.0/24
The mikrotik 2011iLS has 192.168.3.0/24 in the routing table and
knows to route through the [mikrotic PTP-bridge] at the office side
in order to reach the homelan.
When at home I can reach servers in the office lan at good speed.
it can peak up to 90 Mbps, average 60 Mbps. In other words, the path:
{homelan}--->[mikrotic as CPE](<--radio-link-->)[mikrotic PTP-bridge]<---
---{officelan}<--server performs at around 60 Mbps average.
When in the office, test speeds over the internet average at around
16 Mbps (down). In other words, the path:
{internet}-->[adsl router]-nat-->[mikrotik 2011iLS]-nat-->{ office lan }
performs at around 16 Mbps average.
Since the latter path is the slowest one, I expected to see speeds at
around 16 Mbps or a little bit less, from the internet to home.
But I can reach 6 Mbps in the best cases and conditions.
I have been trying to pinpoint the problem for weeks by now, but
I'm now short of any other good ideas about where to look into.
What could be wrong with the combination:
{internet}-->[adsl router]-nat-->[mikrotik 2011iLS]-nat-->{officelan}
-->[mikrotic PTP-bridge](<--radio-link-->)[mikrotic CPE]--{homelan}?
I know that natting twice is a bad practice. But if it were the problem
I would have slow speed issues at the office too.
Am I missing something?
Ask if you need other details,
Thanks in advance, Alessandro
