Slower on Nstreme

RouterOS Wireless Networking
1

I just tried nstreme and my through put (using the bandwidth tester) gives me a slower through put then when it is turned off.
What’s up? It should be faster.

You maybe have slow CPU?

Its the 532 router board so it should have not issues, at least that is what they recomended.

If you are CPU-limited, Nstreme slows things down.

Otherwise, it is really excellent …

so has a Router board 532 got enough cpu for it or not, if so can it manage 2 wireless interfaces?

I had some students do a lot of testing for me, they found that due to the load on the CPU, n-stream will not work as good which everyone will confirm, but if you are just using Turbo mode only, this gives the fastest thruput.

We where looking at backbone links.

PS: Did a test over a 60km link with a couple of WAP boards with 26dB Diapoles and SR5 radios. Tested 8M one way thruput.

Considering there are bigger and better antenna out there, I was most impressed.
