I’ve seen screenshots of guys running 850Mbps. I can run radio to radio tests at 750+Mbps with 80MHz wide channels but I just turned them down to 40MHz wide channels which limit me to about 370Mbps. I’m still playing with them but we are adding 2 more hops tomorrow for a 5-hop link. We are going to feed it with 300Mbps.

After running a speedtest with 650+ms of latency they told me that their VoIP works perfectly. I called BS and they had it hooked up and said feel free. I called my wife and had about a five minute conversation. I have noticed worse lag on the AT&T VoIP service locally (like where you are constantly talking over the top of each other). It had two very small, almost unnoticeable, points where it 'chopped out' a bit. I was completely blown away. Apparently VoIP can work fine with 700ms latency. I never would have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself.

And if there is a specification for latency (and I've never understood why there isn't), then it should surely be < 500 ms, and more reasonably < 100 ms, or possibly < 200 ms. I think the tolerance breakpoint for any VoIP-type service is in the area of 200-250 ms. Exede claims to support some type of VoIP service these days. Has anyone had the opportunity to see how this actually works (or doesn't)? bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 2/14/2015 9:34 AM, Ken Hohhof wrote: I guess we really don’t know what latency, usage limit or price is acceptable because the FCC hasn’t told us yet.

You can perhaps use licensed or other FDD radios for the first few hops and go cheap with the last few hops at the farthest reaches of your network, especially if there is a plan to upgrade these in the future. That doesn’t work so good though if you have a backhaul ring. I agree with Rory that 10 ms isn’t a bid deal. I don’t agree with Mike that 100 ms doesn’t really matter. The problem is that a whole bunch of 10 ms links adds up to 100 ms. Also I worry that some CDN’s use fancy new TCP stacks that back off based on latency rather than packet loss as an indicator of congestion. I think they are wrong to assume that everyone uses infinite buffers for queuing rather than packet drop, but they don’t ask my opinion.

It used to be customers mainly did web browsing and really noticed whether the websites snapped up immediately or lagged. Now everyone is streaming, streaming, streaming. And websites are more worried about tracking cookies and on-the-fly ad auctions for your eyeballs than responsiveness. Plus people use mobile devices and are accustomed to the higher last mile latency of 3G and LTE. Still it’s a little disappointing to backslide on latency because customers don’t value quick response like they used to. They just want mass quantities of data to watch video, as cheap as possible. I guess gamers still care about ping times.
