Packets what are they good or bad??
So that confirms that
it is 10Mbit half duplex, and it
requires a "good"
switch to make that happen, and it
requires everything
else talking to it to be 10Mbit half
duplex.
So, (Blazen Wireless)
when you get your switch, set all
the ports to 10Mbit
half duplex and you should see a
drastic difference. (if
the theory is accurate..) :-)
I've got a similar set up, except we are using a
Canopy SM as the back haul. Just to be on the safe side I set the SM to 10
half going into the Cisco switch. Our thruput tripled and packet loss is
virtually non-existant. We only loose a few packets per 1000+.
FYI : The
switch that the Cisco replaced was a NetGear FS-105.

This
brings up another question on by Canopy BH I can set the link at either
10, 100 full or half dup should I set it to 10 meg 1/2 duplex as well via
the canopy software?

- It's my suspicion that this is the exact cause of
- the slowdowns. If you have a $200+ switch that can
- actually force a port to 10Mbit half duplex and the
- rest of the gear you are talking to is faster, that
- switch might just have enough buffer in it to prevent
- severe packet deferment. But if you are using the
- lesser expensive switches or hubs that detect the SB
- gear at 10Mbit full duplex, then when the port tries
- to talk to the SB gear in both directions at once you
- end up with deferred packets.

- I am seeing about 8000 on them right now on my main APPO's when
reading the description it is vague but does not sound good does this
giving any indication that the LAN setting on the switch is not set to
10 Meg 1/2 duplex?
