Now that you've said that, when we initially hung that AP I left the power
supply at the office. Thinking back I think I may have had another 1g POE
with me but it just may have a CPE POE on it.

Something for me to go look at after Louisville.

 

Thanks!

We've seen performance issues if we're not using the correct power supply.
The APs need to use the 1G power supplies or you'll have issues.  You cannot
use the CPE's power supplies.  The RF link tests will be great but the tests
that run through the ethernet port will not work well.  See the attached
graph, you can definitely see when we changed out the PS in this graph of
usage.  What's weird is this AP was powered from a CMM Micro.  We re-cabled
it to run directly into a cambium power supply.  Done this on about 5 APs at
different sites and it's fixed it every time.

 

The other thing to keep in mind with the RB2011 is what port things are
plugged into.  Ports 6-10 only have a 100M aggregate link to ports 1-5.  If
the aggregate of ports 6-10 require more than 100M, you'll have issues there
too.

I have not yet. This happened right when we acquired another network so I
haven't had much time to spend diagnosing the issue. I did open a trouble
ticket with Cambium but it was closed due to inactivity.

Have you tried a router other than the 2011?  I have 1 site where I have a
2011, and It might be having this problem, but haven't done much testing
from the CPE side.  Other sites with CRS or 1100's seem to be fine.

For me, no. They are all 1gb.

Is this AP connected to a 100Mbps port while your others are connected to a
1000Mbps port?

We have the same issue, just at one site. Air test shows 75x20,  a speedtest
plugged into the radio shows 15x10. Plugged directly into the same port on
the router (RB2011uais-rm) maxes the backhaul link (Rocket M5 @ 20Mhz).
Tried different AP radio's, different firmwares, tried a switch between the
AP & Router, tried with the client radio in bridge & nat modes, tried with
PPPoE and with static IP's assigned.. Nothing has seemed to make a
difference at the site. We have 7 other deployments that we have not seen
this issue with that have very similar setups.

We had seen some issues with ePMP customers on high-speed plans getting poor
speedtest results - we found that changing the customer's router's MTU from
Auto to 1480 helped immensely. Another factor was to make sure that all
backhauls in the path were running at full connection speed (in other words,
a backhaul whose Ethernet port can run at 1000M should be running at 1000M,
even if the traffic never approaches 100M) all the way out to the internet.

Sp I have an issue. Tower is a 4 sector ePMP setup and two backhauls.  We
are seeing poor throughput when connected to the APs (all of them). Signals
are great. Quality and capacity are great.  When going through the AP we are
consistently seeing 4-5 megs of download out to a known speedtest server.
If we plug into the same wired port on which the AP, which gave us the poor
throughput, we can max out the 100 meg uplink. Issue only happens when going
through the wireless.   Here is what I know:

 

 

1.APs are set to 75/25.  SM can do a link test and get 50meg x 12meg on the
link test.  So RF is good.  Isolated AP to where only one client was on.
Same great results.

 

2.Firmware does not seem to be a factor.  Can reproduce this on 2.6.1,
2.5.1, and 2.4.3.

 

3.Have replaced POE injectors 3 times with different manufactures.

 

4.Does not matter if it is DHCP or PPPoE. Hard wired is fine.  Wireless
stinks.

 

 

The AP is plugged into a POE which then plugs into a Mikrotik 2011.  If I
plug into the same exact port the aps plug into speeds are great. The only
thing that is left is patch cable to POE, Cable to AP, or AP.  I refuse to
think 6 cables on the tower do the exact same thing.  The odds for that are
Powerball winning crazy. Speediest from a laptop hooked to an SM to the 2011
are poor.  4-5 megs consistent with spikes up to 10-13, but all over the
place.  Acts like negotiation.  Have set Mikrotik to Auto, to 100 meg full,
only accepted 100 meg on auto.

 

Customers who have 5 meg packages or below don't see this.  Those with 10
meg packages are the ones seeing 4-5 meg speeds. 10 meg packages did work.

 

Clients are mainly at 2.6.1, but we can reproduce this with a 2.5 and 2.4.x
SMs. Nothign has changed in the network, which tests out just fine up to the
point it gets handed off to the ePMP.

 

Anyone ran into this? Any thoughts?

 

Justin
