As mentioned at the beginning of the post, the transfer rate for all configurations was pretty much the same. 450..500kByte/sec. Another strange fact. -- streumix streumix's Profile:

[SlimDevices: Touch] WLAN max. throughput ?

2010-07-26 Thread streumix
Hi, while playing with the samba USB HDD sharing options, I've experienced pretty slow data rates. Therefore, I did measure the WLAN data throughput based on scp, too. (scp a 4MB into the ramdisk - scp 4MBdummy.bin r...@squeezeboxtouch/tmp) But all I could get (scp or SMB export) is somewhat

Now, I didn't want to start a thread about how to deinfe network throughput. I just had been astonished by the large gap between signaling bandwidth (54Mbit) and the effective transfer speed I'm getting for the two two tested methods of file transfer (SMB and scp). Of course, there's a full

What you're seeing probably has little to do with your wireless network's throughput. Data rates when transferring files to and from the Touch can be pretty dismal. The Touch is remarkably slow at just about everything it does. You won't be measuring your wifi speed by running data transfers

I just ran a small test on my wireless network and I get about 21-22 Mbps. This is the speed transferring some large files from my file server to a laptop. -- JJZolx JJZolx's Profile:

A couple more tests, transferring files to and from the Touch over wireless: Copying files to an SD card in the Touch I get a pretty erratic 2-7 Mbps, probably averaging around 4 Mbps. In the other direction, copying from the Touch I get a fairly steady 7-9 Mbps. -- JJZolx
