problems with 802.11n legacy equipment
For a project of netbooks coverage on schools (formerly I have been using Mikrotik on 802.11g with good results) Our intention is use N . I tried difrentes Mikrotik equipment and is well below other Products.
My question is about 802.11N legacy clients ! Not Nstreme with other mikrotiks!
examples
-tp-link WRL-TP-1043ND(dd-wrt) wpa2 aes eap peap 20mhz
56mb real throughput
mikrotik rb411h radio r52n wpa2 aes eap peap 20mhz
30 mb throughput
LocoM2 Ap wpa2 aes eap peap 20mhz
42 mb throughput
no appreciable changes with no encription
the lan wireless card is usualy atheros N cards
only 1 chain
20mhz (we need cover over 300 users)
