RE: [WISPA] Atheros speed WRAP vs RB532

2005-10-20 Thread Paul Hendry
Also just noticed that the TCP test results as well as not taking into
account the TCP acknowledgements it also doesn't include the TCP header and
IP header.

UPDATE

Just tested with 2 P4's at each end of a StarVX link running on the 2 port
WAR (266Mhz CPU). Bi-direction test using TCP, random data (uncompressible)
shows 35-36mbps in both directions (aggregate throughput of 70-72mbps).
These figures do not take into account TCP acknowledgements so the real
throughput is a little higher. The StarVX's report throughput of around
37-39mbps in both rx and tx.

Many thanks,

The first tests I did where with a routed topology through 2 StarVX routers
but these most recent tests is with all interfaces bridged and the StarVX
client as a wireless client bridge which I believe is based on WDS.

If your asymmetric performance with the RB532's is between 12 and 18mbps I
wouldn't say your seeing similar performance as I am seeing 40mbps and
27.7mbps when transmitting and receiving at the same time using random
(uncompressible) tcp based data.

The tests are based on default packet sizes however, we run M3P (ip packing)
between the Mikrotiks and when testing with small packets (50-100byte) I see
the same results. The only problem with M3P is that it adds 15ms of delay in
each direction under low loads. This means you see pings with a round trip
time of +30ms. This does however improve when more and more traffic is
passed over the link as M3P either waits for 1500bytes of traffic or 15ms to
expire (which ever comes first).

The difference in upload and download speed I have so far put down to one
system being a 2.4GHz CPU and the other being a 533MHz CPU. Hopefully I can
test with 2 P4's later today.

Cheers,

P.

Hey, as long as you're doubling as my personal IT lab... :)

My tests so far have just been traditional AP/client mode, and I'm seeing
the same sort of asymmetrical performance you are. With a pair of RB532s,
depending on the random-data and packet size settings, I'm floating
between 12 and 18Mbps. Thing is, I always get better performance with
traffic going client-to-AP than AP-to-client.

Have you, or will you, test with WDS mode? If you've already done so, are
you getting better or worse performance that way? (I may or may not be
able to try that particular setup before I leave for vacation on Friday.
Probably not, because I've not worked with RouterOS' wireless stuff before
and I may not be able to figure out how to set it up. :)

Also, are you using the default packet sizes or have you been playing with
those too? At least in wired network testing I've done before, the real
worst-case scenario involves using the smallest packets you can get away
with (because of the extra overhead in packet creation).

I just meant similar as in asymmetrical, actually, not similar as in 
similar throughput. I was just using RB532s, and I'm pretty sure the 
tests are CPU-bound at this point. (Specifically, it apparently takes a 
lot of CPU to generate all those random packets...) I'm hoping to 
scrounge up another computer from somewhere, so I can run something like 
qcheck or nuttcp on either end of the link.

Marlon:

I've attached a form explaining why we're interested in hearing from
folks in the affected regions -- it will help us to ascertain the extent
of the hurricane impact and faciliate sending help to the affected
areas.  Perhaps you want to float it to your WISP list.  There's an
e-mail box that we've set up [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- folks can e-mail us
about hurricane issues there.

Thanks,
Lauren

Hello. My name is Lauren Van Wazer and I work at the Office of Engineering 
and Technology at the Federal Communications Commission. We are aware that 
you may be working hard to prepare for hurricane Wilma and we do not wish to 
take up a lot of time. To the extent you're able, we're interested in how 
hurricane Wilma is impacting your ability to operate and provide service. We're 
trying to get a whole picture of the adverse impacts caused to the 
communications infrastructure by the hurricane. Also, we'd like to provide 
an avenue for you to communicate to the federal government issues relating 
to your communications network. So, we may be contacting you again over the 
next few days or, if you'd like, you can e-mail us directly, at 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Please understand that this process is entirely voluntary 
and you are under no obligation to provide any information, should you so 
choose.





I'd like to ask you a few questions.

Hi All,

The FCC is starting up their hurricane team again for Wilma.  They have 
asked WISPA to provide as much contact info for anyone in or near the 
landfall zones as possible.


If you are in or near the projected path of Wilma please shoot me an OFF 
LIST message with the current subject line.

Include the following data:
Company name:
Main contact:
Office number:
Main contact cell number:
Complete address:


GPS coordinates:

Assets you have (climbers, extra hardware etc.):

Equipment mainly used (so we can match up those with extra stuff with 
what you may need):


We'll keep an eye on this storm and if it looks like it's going to hit 
hard we'll see if we can get people in the nearby areas ready to move in 
as soon as it's safe.


IF you get hit and need help feel free to contact me directly at this 
email address, my cell phone (509.988.0260) or my office phone (number 
below) at any time.


Thanks and good luck!

[WISPA] Looks like the Senate has already figured out how to spend the money

2005-10-20 Thread George

that they will get from auctioning off the tv spectrum:

http://tinyurl.com/8qz67

The measure provides $4.8 billion to help with the federal budget and 
allocates $1 billion for making communications by emergency personnel 
interoperable. If the auction raises more than $10 billion, the bill 
calls for that extra money to be used for deficit reduction.


A company like Motorola Inc. could benefit since it makes communications 
equipment used by emergency personnel.
