¿Do you tryed with Encryption?
I'd like to see if encryption affects the performance.

Thanks!

It has WPA2-AES encryption, I heard TKIP jacks performance up, and I've always run WPA2-AES so... =)

As you can see, encryption does play a very small factor, but I think security is worth the very little bandwidth you gain. Overall, I am VERY impressed with this product, and can't wait to get it set up in the real world. ALSO, our two rocketdishes showed up today along with two more rocket M5's. >=)

hey!, thanks for sharing the info :)

Glad to lend a hand!

Wimax? :)))

[WisTech]

Wimax? :)))

HAHAHAH Thanks, corrected. Brain isn't working too well today, it's Friday. >=)

Also Ino - Are you getting results similar to mine? I see you're one of the only other people putting these things to the test and providing the results!

[InoX]

I have better results with Airmax On...88mbps ON and 40mbps OFF. Strange. 9km link BulletM

Could be a distance deal. Are you doing ptmp or ptp? We'll probably only use these primarily for backhauls and new AP's, a lot of our customers still use the NS5/PS5 solutions.
