I'm trying to see what max speed can be achieved My setup is as follow: Board: Compex WPJ 563 Card Compex wle900vx OS: Libremesh running openwrt 18.06 Driver: ath10k_pci 0000:00:00.0: firmware ver 10.2.4-1.0-00033 api 5 features no-p2p,raw-mode,mfp,allows-mesh-bcast crc32 c41417d0 Firmware: firmware-5.bin_10.2.4-1.0-00041
Physical setup Connected 3 6dBi antennas on each side to CH0, CH1, CH2 port to achieve 3x3 mimo. Distance between 2 devices is 2m on a bench. Set power level on each end to 8 dBm to ensure I don't saturate radios Status of radio Node A iwinfo wlan0-mesh info wlan0-mesh ESSID: "speedtest" Access Point: 04:F0:21:3E:DA:A2 Mode: Client Channel: 48 (5.240 GHz) Tx-Power: 8 dBm Link Quality: 70/70 Signal: -33 dBm Noise: -102 dBm Bit Rate: 6.0 MBit/s Encryption: none Type: nl80211 HW Mode(s): 802.11bgnac Hardware: 168C:003C 0000:0000 [Qualcomm Atheros QCA9880] TX power offset: none Frequency offset: none Supports VAPs: yes PHY name: phy0 Status of radio Node B wlan0-mesh ESSID: "speedtest" Access Point: 04:F0:21:3E:DA:A2 Mode: Master Channel: 48 (5.240 GHz) Tx-Power: 8 dBm Link Quality: 65/70 Signal: -45 dBm Noise: -105 dBm Bit Rate: 6.0 MBit/s Encryption: none Type: nl80211 HW Mode(s): 802.11bgnac Hardware: 168C:003C 0000:0000 [Qualcomm Atheros QCA9880] TX power offset: none Frequency offset: none Supports VAPs: yes PHY name: phy0 Ping between radios root@FlatsEast:~# ping 10.69.0.1 PING 10.69.0.1 (10.69.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 10.69.0.1: icmp_req=1 ttl=64 time=1.29 ms 64 bytes from 10.69.0.1: icmp_req=2 ttl=64 time=1.22 ms 64 bytes from 10.69.0.1: icmp_req=3 ttl=64 time=1.22 ms Used iperf to set throughput Client side iperf -c 10.69.0.1 -P 10 -i 5 -t 120 Server side iperf -s Best performance achieved after waiting for TCP to stabalize: 139 Mbps [ 12] 45.0-50.0 sec 11.8 MBytes 19.7 Mbits/sec [ 11] 45.0-50.0 sec 7.12 MBytes 12.0 Mbits/sec [ 9] 45.0-50.0 sec 8.12 MBytes 13.6 Mbits/sec [ 6] 45.0-50.0 sec 7.75 MBytes 13.0 Mbits/sec [ 8] 45.0-50.0 sec 8.00 MBytes 13.4 Mbits/sec [ 4] 45.0-50.0 sec 7.75 MBytes 13.0 Mbits/sec [ 3] 45.0-50.0 sec 7.75 MBytes 13.0 Mbits/sec [ 10] 45.0-50.0 sec 6.62 MBytes 11.1 Mbits/sec [ 7] 45.0-50.0 sec 7.88 MBytes 13.2 Mbits/sec [ 5] 45.0-50.0 sec 9.88 MBytes 16.6 Mbits/sec [SUM] 45.0-50.0 sec 82.6 MBytes 139 Mbits/sec top: Mem: 47064K used, 78232K free, 188K shrd, 3936K buff, 10564K cached CPU: 19% usr 36% sys 0% nic 0% idle 0% io 0% irq 43% sirq Load average: 4.59 3.06 1.90 3/74 25823 PID PPID USER STAT VSZ %VSZ %CPU COMMAND 3 2 root RW 0 0% 32% [ksoftirqd/0] 24511 4419 root S 33320 27% 22% iperf -c 10.69.0.1 -P 10 -i 5 -t 120 Any suggestions Regards David -- Dr David Johnson Director, Ammbr Research Labs South Africa Part of the AmmbrTech Group http://www.ammbrtech.com Adjunct Senior Lecturer ICT4D, Computer Science Department University of Cape Town https://people.cs.uct.ac.za/~djohnson/ _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
