Dan,

I have talked with many people (including Butch Evans that is the MT consultant) and he has never seen anything over 21Mbps with the RB532.

I have the exact configuration you have described running on a 9 mile link and 17 mile link. With the 17 mile link, I have MT routers on either side of the ptp link with the RB532's (running at 330Mhz by the way) and I have never seen more than 21Mbps doing transfers both directions at the same time.

Are you sure you are doing TCP and not UDP when you run the bandwidth test?

I’m using a standard RB532, IP conn-track off, I am using the pacwireless outdoor enclosures or the MTI pocket antennas…

 

SR5 cards, nstream enabled, framer policy dynamic size,  limit-3200 is default 4000 works a little better but have not tested w/ voip

 

Routing is faster than bridging – cpu is definitely an issue at 30Mbps – I will be getting a outdoor 1ghz+ system to test which is doing 40Mbps and 80Mbps I believe w/ Turbo

 

 

Lots of option, 5mhz, 10mhz, 20mhz or 40mhz channels, possibility of using 2 separate 20mhz links and load-balancing them for the 60Mbps to 80Mbps

 

 

Plus you could go nstream2 and setup FDX link w/ either dual pol dish or 2 antenna’s.

Dan,

We had this discussion a few weeks ago, although it may have been on another wireless list.

What processor and setup are you using to get 30Mbps? The fastest I have seen with routerboard 532's in a p2p config is 20Mbps of TCP traffic passing thru the RB's. Do you have outdoor enclosures?

I believe that the atheros chipset is capped at 35Mbps, although users of MT have claimed higher using very fast cpu’s. 

 

I have several atheros/MT/nstream links (PTP and PTMP) that push 30Mbps…. Pretty impressive throughput, plus adjustable channels, plus QoS for VoIP and all the other features available make a nice system

Hi,

Does anyone know actual TCP throughput with StarOS on their 533mhz boards in just a point to point config, using 20mhz of spectrum?

So... Who makes them?, how much?
 
 
  
Hi Richard,
 
 This cloaking mechanism is the 5MHz and 10MHz channel sizes that
George was referring to on the Star WAR boards. Works really well and even
seems to improve signal quality.
 
Cheers,
 
P.

Guys;
These all sound great.  I was reading just a couple months back about a 
WISP
 
operator that had a severe problem.  Just a few yards away, maybe 300 feet,
another guy put up his tower.  I think they were both on 2.4 GHZ, and
someone suggested a different AP that would not even be detected by
conventional systems.  Something about nonstandard bandwidth, channel
spacing or coding.  I really feel that stealth is best here.  These other
guys have been in business for a while and could cause trouble that I do 
not
 
need.

Trango does make a good product. I still have 2 Sunstream AP's in use. 
      
They
 
    
are like Timex watches.
 
I'm using Star War boards. A little bit more than the trango s. The 2 
      
card
    
boards in a 5 gig rootenna let me use the 2nd card for an omni.
Speeds are about 20+ megs or so and I cloak down to 5MHz and 10MHz 
      
channel
    
sizes.
 
One of the things I've been doing is slapping up repeaters all over the
place. Cheap as hell, about 400.00 or so.
 
Lately I've ran lmr400 into some of my customers attics and installed an
omni for their home wifi. We tend to service our customers right to the 
      
pc
    
and it's a lot better router than a linksys. And I have happier customers
and I'm happier.
 
The 2 port and the 4 port both have dual ethernet as well.
 
Pretty versatile product. Lonnie has come along way with the new war
platform.

That's on quantity 30.... $149 each. 5.8ghz, dual polarity, up to 3 
        
miles
    
(add $40 for a dish and it goes up to 13 miles) and delivers up to 
        
10Mbps.
 
    
Hard to beat! And with SmartPolling on the AP, you can get hundreds of
customers per sector.

If it's pretty absent of trees you might look at 5.8.  Trango has that
cpe for $150.  Not going to find any propriety gear cheaper.

I have been planning my WISP for about a year, and have yet to begin
delivery of bandwidth to customers. My choice for service delivery 
              
was
    
802.11b, but with increased competition from other services nearby
(about 5 miles away) I am wondering how to avoid problems.  I have a
50' tower, and it is ROHN 45g.  My choice for antennas would be 4 90
degree horizontal antennas.  I have looked at bandwidth and shopped 
              
it
    
to death.  My best price is $400 from Lime Light.  And I've built a
couple of servers, acquired some switches and a router.  The Router 
              
is
    
a Cisco 1750.
 
My questions:
 
What CPE's and AP's would work best in this environment?  I want to
keep interferance to a minimum, as well as control costs.  My
environment includes lots of desert, and single story buildings.
