Real-world indoor throughput on SR71-A

[exobyte]

Not necessarily that exact model, but any dual-band 802.11n setup. Assume there isn't interference, but signal has to punch through a wall, or two 10 feet away (because line of sight indoors isn't normal).

I'm trying to figure out how important a gigabit uplink is. Wikipedia says the max throughput is 600mbps, but it also says typical is 74mbps (not sure if that's one band or two). Crowdsourcing has done all it can do, now I'm asking people who know what's they're talking about.

Hello,

I have reached 125Mbps indoor speeds using SR71-A in 5Ghz 40Mhz channel. This will not exceed 125Mbps as this is half duplex. Standard 100Megabit ethernet can do 180 Mbps Half duplex.

Thanks,

Mike

Did you mean fast ethernet can do 180 Mbps full duplex (100 per direction - some overhead)?

Either way, it's good to know that I can't currently saturate a 100Mbps ehternet link with 802.11n...yet (just wait for super n).

Hey Exobyte,

This is correct 100 each direction (80ish TCP/IP with the overhead)

Thanks,

Mike

Can you tell me how did u get more that 30Mbps. I tried all the combination, including link aggregation, 20 or 40 Mhz channel. I mention that I tested in lab using smartbits 2000. Signal strength was -74 without antennas. I am a little dissapointed

[razvan_fzl]

Update, I mounted 2 antennas and atenuators and got about 90Mbps for large packets and 24 Mbps for small packets. Signal was -68. I think that is software limitation, it can be improved easily. All the bandwidth test that I have done was with a professional tool, Smartbits 2000. In a few days I will do some realworld tests.

Hey razvan_fzl

Any realworld results??

Arc wireless, or something else?

Standard 100Megabit ethernet can do 180 Mbps Half duplex.

How do you configure this? Is it more than simply setting the configuration of the cards on both sides to fixed half-duplex 100M?

Thanks,

CJ

can you share your settings?
what is ptp? i'm testin using accespoint wds .
