Dear Ben,
I tested same set up with QCA driver, I can achieve 984Mbps. With Ath10k
driver, throughput stuck at 640Mpbs. Can you give me any suggestion?
thanks,
Phyuthe

I don't know. I would first suggest that you try an x86 platform with
powerful CPU in your own test environment. Possibly we are just using
a better isolation chamber or have some other advantage in our environment
or test setup.
If you can reproduce our good results with x86 in your setup, then you can
be more sure it is something to do with your particular platform.
Thanks,
Ben

Dear Ben,
According to your test result of QCA9880 3x3, what could be the low
performance issue at my side IPQ8064+QCA9880 with Ath10k? Is it really CPU
related problem
on WPQ864?
thanks,
Phyuthe

Hello!
We ran some more tests using our x86 based platforms with 9880 NICs and
9984 NICs
acting as both AP and Station. This is in an isolation chamber, wired up
with SMA cables
and variable attenuator, in as perfect of a condition as we can manage.
First, here is LANforge acting as AP and station devices, using QCA9880
3x3 hardware:

And with 9984 systems:

In case you read closely and wonder, 'Armageddon' is our modified version
of pktgen.
Thanks,
Ben

@ben greear. it cannot be cpu related. the ipq8064 has 1.2 ghz and is a
very fast arm core. the platform handles 9984 with much higher speed.
i got notice of the same issue reported by people on various cpu
platforms.

Dear Ben,
Thanks for your reply and suggestion.
I have tried as your suggestion to test IPQ8064+QCA9880 with Ath10k CT
firmware/driver to run throughput UDP/TCP. Unfortunately, I could not be
able to see
throughput improvement. Could you please suggest what may cause low
throughput?
thanks,
Phyuthe

We have not done a lot of testing in AP mode, but when using 9880 3x3
compex NICs
in our 2U rackmounts (high end Intel E5 processors), and with CT
firmware/drivers,
we see near 950Mbps UDP download in station mode. I think we were a bit
slower in
AP mode, but not that much.
Are you testing TCP or UDP traffic?

Have you tried normal STA/AP mode instead of WDS?
Maybe you are CPU bound on your platform?
Thanks,
Ben

Dear Ben,
I configured AP_WDS and Sta_WDS mode, channel 149, 11ac, 3x3, 80MHz and
without encryption. I used 2 RF boxes with 3 adjustable attenuators
running throughput
by Ixchairot to get best performance. However, throughput seems limited
to 640Mbps. Kindly see attached for your reference for more details.
thanks,
Phyuthe

You should provide a lot more information about how you configured and
tested the system,
including traffic generator and RF environment, etc.
Thanks,

Dear Sir,
I tested performance throughput test used WPQ864 + QCA9880 11ac 80MHz
is 640Mbps that is very low since theoretical data rate is 1300Mbps.
It should be at
least 866Mbps. Could you please suggest me how to get better
performance?
thanks,
Phyuthe
