iPerf is very accurate in what it tells you. What you draw from those conclusions may or may not be accurate.

I'm curious of your thoughts as to the reliability, and how the results would map to a real-world environment. For example, a friend was testing some 3.65 radios (which had no connection to the Internet) using iPerf. Based upon the iPerf results, a determination was made regarding maximum concurrent users per AP and maximum aggregate bandwidth capacity of the radio. For the maximum concurrent users I believe they tested this at several different download and upload speed for the fictional users. Having never used iPerf, I don't know if the results from their tests (which were very poor by the way - much lower than common configurations of DL/UL rates as well as number of users per AP I've read many of you describing on these lists) map reasonably to what one would expect from a given AP, or if they tend to be wonky.
