We recently purchased 2 SXT G-5HnD routers to create a point to point wireless bridge. We have been testing the units at a distance of about 50 yards. The connection seems to be solid. We are using OS 5.17.
Ping <1ms
Bandwith: 50-80mb
However, when we run iperf to test packet loss we get 30-80% loss of packets. We run iperf with the server end at the the bridge and the client end at the station bridge. We are testing with 100m packets.
iperf -u -s 192.168.XXX.XX -b 100m
For our router configurations, the only settings we have altered from the default are:
Bridge/Station bridge
5ghz N Only
Nstreme
Nstreme enabled
40mhz/20mhz above
protocol mode=none (under the bridge tab)
We have tried using different protocols such as 802.11 only ad NV2 with the same results.
We also have a pair ubiquiti nano bridges 5g/25dbi that we use for another point to point wireless bridge. We have run all the exact same tests with them and get 0% packet loss in iperf. Something seems to be seriously wrong, but we can’t figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
