Nothing complicated. This link is 48.23 Kilometres.
Just using Nstreme with polling, exact size 3200.
The key seems to be clean spectrum, a decent signal level (about -57 in this
particular case), and a 411AH/XR-5 to get enough horsepower.
We are running 3.30 Wireless Test. The Wireless Test package helps a LOT.
There is roughly 4Mbits of background traffic running across this link in
addition to the bandwidth test numbers below.
Hope this helps. I'm very interested in how we can make this even faster!!!

I believe you but I want to know how to do it :)
