Are  you using the same SM for all of your tests?

So here are the things i've tried. 

Both my main Netonix Switch and the microtik switches has flow control turned 
on. I disabled it and actually, if possible, the speed got worse. So i 
re-enabled it.

I'm still unable to pass more the 3Mbps anywhere though.

I've been able to replicate this on every sector now. It has to be something 
upstream from the access points, but I'm just not sure where to look at this 
point.

Thank You,

  Tik switch at the tower had flow control enabled on all ports. I have 
disabled it now. Customer is asleep now i'm sure, so I can't have them check. 
But I'll know more in the morning. This was happening on all SMs though, so I 
may fire one up just to see.

    They aren't airfiber, they are Mimosa B5s 

    Microtik routers/switches.

    I didn't enable flow control, but i'll double check

      What is all of the equipment involved? Have you looked for CRC or FCS 
errors on any ethernet links? Unfortunately, the ePMP gear does not have 
ethernet CRC errors stats. What about flow control on your GigE interfaces?

      Have you ran iperf from behind the SM all the way through to your router?

      You say 750Mbps. Are they AirFiber radios? Flow control is what comes to 
my mind there. If you have flow control enabled anywhere, turn it off and see 
if end-user speed increases. We don't use it because pause frames cause jitter 
for VoIP.

        Everyone,

        I enabled the MIR profiles and set the one I am talking about to 
25000/5000, the link test shows this speed perfectly, except when we do a 
speedtest via speedof.me or speedtest.net or anything really, it's only showing 
3Mbps.

        I have a cambium support ticket open, but that may take a while.

        I've dug through every setting I can find and can't see anything that 
would be causing this.

        Here is the generic layout of my network:

        SM --><-- AP --> L3 Switch --> BH Radio --> <-- BH Radio --> Switch --> 
Router --> Internet

        I've tested the speed (iperf) all the way from my router to my l3 
swtich at the tower and I'm getting roughtly 750Mbps avg to the l3 switch. I've 
tested throughput on the switch as well and I was easily passing 5Gbps through 
it.

        I've seen no speed mismatch errors anywhere on the network.

          Here's a couple things to check,


          Check the ap, is MIR under QOS enabled? if so, there should be an 
entry under monitor->wireless for the sm showing the rate the sm is 'queued' at.



          The wireless link test will only show it passing roughly what it is 
queued at. Also, check the MCS column. If it;s a good link it will be at the 
max Rate setting configured 


          under the radio config of the ap

            Good day list,

            I have a Force 200 operating at very good signal levels but for 
some reason, I can seem to get any more than 3Mbps out of the connection.

            Did i miss a setting somewhere?
