Hello,
I have recently been switching my Cisco and industry standard gear our for Mikrotik devices with great success. I love the feature sets, flexibility, etc…but I have some questions about their AP’s. I currently have a RB951G-2HND running, and I can only get about 60Mbps/12Mbps when running internet speedtest and direct downloads when using the Mirkotik AP. When I use my Apple Airport Xtreme I consistently get my max download from 82Mbps/12Mbps. I was assuming with the dual MIMO antennas I would be able to get 104Mbps (2 x 54Mbps)??? I am not sure if there is something I am not setting up correctly? Please let me know, thanks!
You could enable Fasttrack to increase your speed.
Just this rule alone should increase speed in speedtest, if you put it above other rules :
/ip firewall filter add chain=forward action=fasttrack-connection connection-state=established,related
Also please post the registration table output from when you are doing the test
this will show signal for tx/rx and quality levels
