Re: [smartBridges] # of hops possible

Title: Message

I will use whatever hardware works best.    I am going to be wireless directly from the provider (colo at facility, directly connected to thier ethernet network) to the access points.    Many or most users will have thier link to the ap's be the 4th link in my network.   Try as I might, I have not found a way to shorten this to the originally designed single long hop to the point where the AP's connect.       NEOFAST.NET North East Oregon FAST Net mark(at)neofast.net ----- Original Message ----- From: Tom Haynes To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 4:38 PM Subject: RE: [smartBridges] # of hops possible You you using an AP in repeater mode or two APs (one in/one out)? repeater mode cuts the BW in half but 2 APs only add a slight time delay. Most of the delay is caused by an incorrectly config'd router. Use a good router or none at all. Just connect the two APs with a crossover. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of phantam Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 11:21 AM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: RE: [smartBridges] # of hops possible It deviced by relatively half each jump you can go forever but after a few hops may only have 2k throughput :) -----Original Message----- From: Mark Koskenmaki [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, June 17, 2003 11:33 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] What's the maximum number of consecutive hops possible, and what is the loss in throughput associated with making these consecutive links?
