-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Your clients have good signal to them, but the signal they are getting back to the AP may be less than desirable. It could be that one or more of your clients have poor signal back to the AP, if one of those clients starts to send traffic out, it will often not reach the AP in a usable state [ie. it's corrupted]. When that happens that client then has to re-xmit to the AP the lost packet, which is also likely to be lost. The AP will then be busy having transactions with the poor client at the expense of the good ones. This problem is compounded by hidden nodes. Do your clients have RTS configured? Also if you find a client who is not getting good signal back to the AP try setting their fragmentation threshold to a lower number.
