I’m trying to get at least 200mb on these and the best I can get is about 120mb. Settings are 802.11AC only. 20/40/80. SNR 64, signal strength -46 CCQ 86/100. Any suggestions or known issues? Thanks.
Don’t use internal btest.
That’s what I was using. I’ve tried it using LAN Test and same results.
My wireless config setup. I’m totally stuck here. Thanks guys.
Any suggestions on how to attain better throughput?
what is the distance for the wireless link?
Try using Nv2 wireless-protocol.
Distance is about 150ft. I’m looking to use these to link two buildings across a parking lot. I’ve tried Nv2 with not much better results. I’ve spent two days now testing every possible configuration. Frequencies are clean. I can get decent speed testing using UDP but TCP max is about 130mbs.
My test setup is RB450G—SXT#######SXT—RB450G. Running BTest on the two 450G.
Check cpu usage while doing this test. I am sure it will max out generating that amount of tcp traffic.
You can even test those 450G’s with 1m utp and I am quite sure the result will be the same.
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll take a look at that today and report back.
with the 450G the side generating the traffic was at 100%. Tried with RB1100 and much better however throughput isn’t getting much above 170mbs. CCQ all over the place. Also it keeps going back and forth from 40mhz channel to 80mhz channel. Appears very unstable.
day 3 working on this and still can’t get above 170mbs. CCQ unstable and modulation keeps bouncing to different rates. Anyone else got these working stable?
Do you try to change frequency ?
tried every frequency
Try reducing signal strength, depending on the radio chipset, -46 is a bit too strong for most radios. Your radios might want to be at -56 instead. Yes there is such a thing as too strong.
do you have clean line of sight of that wireless link?
Do you have some other 5ghz equipment near that link?
yes and no.
Did you scan for other 5.8GHz device which might be operating in the area? Not yours, devices belonging to other people. 80MHz of clean spectrum is very hard to come by around here. 20MHz of clean spectrum is hard to find in that band.
CCQ and modulation bouncing, barring hardware or software defects, tells me you have noise. I would look at the scanner and frequency usage tools. RX signal levels too strong could also count as noise.
