Managed to scavenge a P4 system together for testing purposes. Tested again using built-in bandwidth test tools as these seem to give a pretty accurate representation of uncompressible traffic when using random data (i.e. worse case scenario). Signal on both ends is -65 running frequency 5800 in turbo with a rate of 108. Testing now shows average of 40mbps in one direction and 27.7 in other. I will try and build another P4 system as the 2nd Mikrotik in this setup is an old VIA mini-itx board running a 533MHz CPU :(

We thought we'd see what we could get through a couple of these 2 port WAR boards in ideal conditions (rssi -25) with turbo enabled. Testing was between 2 Mikrotik boxes with a StarVX link linking them. Test was using built-in Mikrotik bandwidth-test in both directions using random data and tcp. After running the test for 30 mins we have a tx average of 27Mbps and rx average of 30.1Mbps. CPU's on both Mikrotik boxes where running at 100% throughout the entire test so I really need to build some P4's to test with to truly see what these can do. Not sure how this compares with any testing others have done on other systems but thought I should post the results.

And finding a clear 5 or 10Mhz is a lot easier than finding a clear 20Mhz. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Sent: 11 October 2005 15:56 To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] Atheros speed WRAP vs RB532 Paul Hendry wrote: as we have no intention > of using them at 20 or 40Mhz. This to me is the beauty of the WAR StarVX platform. The links I have up now are 10MHz. With limited spectrum available to us, it's the frugal thing to do.
