Is my understanding correct? >From what you are saying I deduce that you are using ethernet cables. So 89 Mb/s is a perfectly valid result since ethernet is full duplex, this mean that node B can receive and send packet at the same time (this is not possible in wireless network). > > Please help me. > > Max > > -- Daniele Furlan
