I've found that I can't connect to the SR71-E intermittently so I've removed it from the system altogether for now. I've spent way too much time on wifi experimentation lately but I'll reinstall it and run some more tests soon. Has anyone else been unable to connect to the SR71-E in AP mode intermittently? ifconfig and iwconfig look fine but I can't connect even after shutting down and starting up again. I've run into this problem a few times with the SR71-E and I'm always able to connect again eventually, but this last time I gave up and installed my Netgear ath5k card which works great in AP mode all the time. - Grant >>> Can you try doing some iperf testing to a local linux box, through the APs? >> >> Here's what I came up with pertaining to the SR71-E: >> >> 1. the performance of 802.11n in AP mode is good, about 15Mbit/s >> 2. the performance of 802.11g in AP mode is horrible, very unreliable >> and just a few hundred Kbit/s at best >> 3. the performance of 802.11b in AP mode is good, about 4.5Mbit/s >> >> The same iperf tests with a Netgear ath5k card: >> >> 1. the performance of 802.11g in AP mode should be better, about 5.5Mbit/s >> 2. the performance of 802.11b in AP mode is good, 4.5Mbit/s >> >>> I'm noticing some strange issues in FreeBSD with the SR71-E, but >>> nothing which would cause that kind of performance issue. >> >> What sort of things are you seeing from the SR71-E? >> >> - Grant >> >> >>> Thanks, >>> >>> Adrian >>> >>> On 13 August 2011 12:33, Grant <emailgr...@gmail.com> wrote: >>>> Using my ISP's throughput test: >>>> >>>> http://speedtest.oceanic.com >>>> >>>> I get drastically better performance from my Netgear ath5k card in AP >>>> mode compared to my Ubiquiti SR71-E in AP mode.
