3xR700 speedflex MAX 300mbit on GIGALAN

[angelo_de_laat]

Hi,

I have 3 R700 APS with no ZD.

Have tried several sw releases but currently running 100.1.0.0.432 as this has the highest throughput in WIFI and LAN. 

running IPERF3 while replacing two APS with PCs give me:

So, 829 Mbits/sec is fine and I think we can eliminate switch and/or cable issues.

Ruckus is giving me MAX 300mbps using SpeedFlex test (tried several ways with all 3 APS)

ethernetport is configured as trunkport
bridged to WAN
802.1X disabled
option 82 enabled
fingerprinting enabled
giving me a 1000M full in the status view:

1 eth1 None Down Down 10/100/1000


is there a setting I`m overlooking to enable full speed between APS?

[angelo_de_laat]

can somebody please but some questions in reply so I can investigate or tell me what I overlooked..

Hi Angelo,

R700 is a 3x3x:3 AP, means it will provide highest data rate when a compatible client is connected on 5GHz on 80MHz channel.



Data rate also depends upon so many factors like, RF noise/interference, type of material used in physical environment where APs are deployed, multipath, etc.

Start checking with supported data rates on the UE WiFi card specification and how many spacial streams it supports. Then check if AP is configured with 80MHz channelization and client is connecting on 5GHz.

For example, my laptop's wifi card only supports 2x2 antenna chains and it can go upto 867Mbps on 5GHz radio.

If I try to connect my laptop to an AP, which support gigbit speed, still I cannot cross the maximum supported speed by the client device WiFi card.
