Yes you have to have a good processor, it does compression. I also believe it does MPPP as well, and larger frame sizes as well to get higher speeds. Hence, processor usage is key.
MT is a router, why bridge! :) never really needed to do WDS with N-stream etc. Its also a polling system and you can disable CSMA as well. ------------------------------ * Dennis Burgess, CCNA, A+, Mikrotik Certified Trainer WISPA Board Member - wispa.org <http://www.wispa.org/> Link Technologies, Inc -- Mikrotik & WISP Support Services* *Office*: 314-735-0270 *Website*: http://www.linktechs.net <http://www.linktechs.net/> */ Link Technologies, Inc is offering LIVE Mikrotik On-Line Training <http://www.linktechs.net/onlinetraining.asp>/* Tom DeReggi wrote: > Yes, Nstreme can add significant speed, depending on the situation, It > should be noted that... > > 1.
