How many wireless users can connect it AP

Fri Feb 13, 2015 12:17 pm

Hello, I have the most to achieve the 28 mobile clients connected to the ap, but the speed has been very slow. Can you tell me how many you to connect up to a cell phone?

Even 100 is possible, but when you say speed is slow, what is the distance from the client to the AP?
what AP do you have ?

I would say 100 users would make the link unusable :) ... 30 should work fine on 951ui, you can do even 40, but I would not put more on a single radio if you expect good performance ... did you measure latency too or just speed? Try setting changing some options in advanced config section, play with HW protection mode (rts/cts recommended), lower the hw retries, try adaptive noise immunity, ... do a frequency scan to best channel for your setup ... signals between -50 and -70 seem OK, what were the average CCQ rates?
