hello,
this is my first post in this great forum.
1st of all sorry for my bad englsh. ok now the question.

when we configure mikrotik and in wireless settings when we choose band: what is the difference between:

A) 2.4 GHz, 2 GHz-10MHz and 2 GHz-5Mhz
B) 5GHz , 5GHz-10MHz and 5GHz-5MHz

how these band differ with each other in respect to throughtput, stablity, interference.etc

do 2.4GHz-10MHz and 2.4GHz- 5MHz is better then simple 2.4 GHz?

do 5GHz-10MHz and 5GHz- 5MHz is better then simple 5GHz?

thx & regards

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WLAN_channels aha I found the link at last :laughing:

And it seems that with different setting in RouterOS, your wireless link will be situated in a different channel with some frequency offset.

I can suggest you simply test all the settings and see how your link works best, for example, depending on antennas, 5GHz-turbo at 5800, nstreme. Then do a bandwidth test and observe signal levels.

… Refer to the wireless FAQ in the WiKi as well.
