Hi,
I have an R52N in a RB333 running 5GHz-N-Only mode, I’m using it as an indoor access point for my home. When sitting next to the router with my notebook it connects at 130mbits (Max of my notebooks Intel 4965AGN card apparently) my problem is i cant seem to get more then about 30mbits throughput, i’ve tried different channels, different notebooks etc…
Any ideas?
Thanks.
how did you test it?
Directly to the board or through the board?
Try to use some speed testing program. check the signal, maybe the signal is too strong.
I’m testing to an FTP server located on the Ethernet side of the router. Signal is -35 with a 98% CCQ when next to the router, i’ve also tried moving away. No difference.
Try to do a multiple connections using some download accelerator. Check the CPU usage on the router when you are doing the transmit.
Hi,
CPU is only around 70-80%, i tested with multiple streams and same result.
Please see attached settings, does they look right?
attach JPG files please
Done
I’ve upgraded to ROS 4.1, done a config reset and same result, cant get more then 25 - 30mbit. I also tried another notebook.
Is anyone else running a similar setup? if so what speeds do you get?
I have another R52N on the way for another job, i will test it before it goes out…
I have the same problem using 493ah + r52n and I’m using 2 laptops with Intel 4965agn, and no more that 30mbps. It connects at 130mbps for a moment, after that slows down. Tried changing frequencies, tried at 2.4 ghz with Ralink 2860 Eeepc-901 and same speed. I’m using 2 8dbi antennas and RouterOS v4.2
Hello,
I have same problem.
I run Router0S 4.2 on a RouterBoard RB411A with a R52N Wifi Card.
I have tested connection and network wifi bandwith.
Both clients are running Windows XP.
One has an Intel 4965AGN Network card.
Other one has a TPLINK TL-WN861N.
Both stations connect at 130Mbps (Winbox says 130/54 ?).
But doing a FTP session with my server will not go better than 25Mbps.
CPU of routerboard is around 10% during FTP transfert.
Another user has same problem : http://forum.mikrotik.com/t/poor-performance-with-a-rb411a-r2n-in-n-ap-bridge-mode/32430/1
I’ve got 50M using UBNT SR71 15 and RB 433AH

Hello people,
i have the same problem with 2 RB600 and 2 SR71-15 with upgraded 4.2rel.
I try it on the table with 1/4 dipole, and not have more than 25mbps duplex.
May be it will start normal work if i set it on the link? Link is more than 50km with clean LOS, but without testing in office, i don’t want to setup it.
I play with all configuration menus, i disable Nstreme and WDS, try only the station-to-apbridge mode with setting the IP to wlan interfaces, and check the TCP speed with internal Bandwidth test.
What the problem with hell?
May be the SR71-15 is not full compatble with Mikrotik? And how we can used 40mhz channels in 4.2rel?
Use MPLS/VPLS.

Your answer is always “read this”! That is only what you know ?! Admit that N doesn’t work yet so we will not be waisting our expensive time.

Indeed, its obvious there’s a problem here it would be nice to have a response from MikroTik
Thanks.

The IEEE 802.11n Draft prohibits using High Throughput with WEP or TKIP as the unicast cipher. If you use these encryption methods (e.g. WEP, WPA-TKIP), your data rate will drop to 54 Mbps. The client drivers will connect using a legacy IEEE 802.11g connection rather than failing to connect altogether, which complies with the IEEE 802.11n draft.
Configure both the WiFi client and AP device’s profile to use Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA2-AES or WPA2-TKIP). You may also choose to configure an unsecured profile, but this option is NOT recommended.
Blablabla…
WPA2-AES used.
Encryption disabled already tested !
After that post, I retract any attempt at assistance and regret putting forth any effort to help you out. Good Luck in your future attempts to get help from strangers with that attitude.
I have also tried with no encryption, speeds are still the same.
Thanks for the suggestion THG
