Hi …
Consider this diagram:
Running torch at any station-bridge interface shows the same amount of data and the same connections, even if the traffic is not addressed to clients which are under those APs.
I mean, traffic from a PC at the 2.4G station bridge device to clients of 192.168.10.0/27 network (pix left) can be measured at the 900MHz station bridge at the pix right.
In fact torch on any station bridge clients (900 or 2.4) from the rounded-by-a-circle AP are the same: speeds, connections … and when switched to standard station torch on such interfaces are more “realistic” (e.g. have connections and traffic related only to the clients of such APs).
My question is: if I use station mode (standard) or station-bridge mode (MT proprietary), in terms of performance … is there any difference?
Is the difference just the possibility to watch the “existing traffic & connections info” that will propagate trhu everything that’s bridged on layer 2?
May be this is the reason why the labels of 900MHz links exibit the same info (data speed), despite of part of the traffic be destinated to the 2.4 Stn Bridge device.
Any help?
Regards;
