Re: [WISPA] Rocket AP through put
My guess would be the total bandwidth you are trying to put through the AP what are the average plan speeds going through? If you were running an average CPE at 5-6Mbps then 30 or so CPEs should not be too much of an issue, but if the average is higher or the average of customers streaming video or gaming is 'above norm'... then that would certainly start causing an overload situation and may require adding more APs. I think you need to get a handle on details... what is the bandwidth usage at each CPE from 3 to 9PM... looking for a crash point at the AP... looking at the total load growth in that period. Or it could be as simple as one CPE has not been controlled, which happens to be a rogue high user... I had one few months ago... was running Chat Servers on a public IP which a tech forgot to bandwidth control!

Re: [WISPA] Rocket AP through put
My guess is that you are running out of PPS capacity (packets per second). Video tends to be smaller packets in size but larger number in quantity... So, here come a lot of if's and's or buts. How do the other folks (Wisp's) Manage this issue. ? Lots of different ways, but before you dive into that.. you will have to describe your network a bit Bridged ? Routed ? What is doing Traffic Shaping ? How many AP's/ Pop ? what is the Backhaul ? etc. I wish there was a simple answer for the problem you are describing.. :) Regards.

Lots of different ways, but before you dive into that.. you will have to describe your network a bit Bridged ? Routed ? What is doing Traffic Shaping ? How many AP's/ Pop ? what is the Backhaul ? etc. I wish there was a simple answer for the problem you are describing.. :) Regards.

We have quite a few of these in the field with UBNT Sectors and KPerformance Sectors. What we run into is customer complaints about slow speeds at night when they call into after hours support. We come in the next day and run speed tests to the radios and they look ok. Some APs have 20 subs and some as high as 50 subs. Yesterday one of our employees ran speed tests from his home connected to one of those APs during the day and he got 15M. Then that evening he tried to watch Netflix - biggest complaint from most subs - and it would not start. He ran a speed test and got 500K. The AP he is connected to has 19 subs. Trying to figure out just how many subs streaming on an AP will bring the through put down to 500K? We are considering limiting how many streams can run on a given AP but need to figure where the breaking point is if that makes any sense. Thanks for any insight any one can shed on this. -- Arthur Stephens Senior Networking Technician Ptera Inc.
