I wish radios had a metric like duty cycle. It would tell you what percent of the time the radio is busy, regardless of underlying causes (throughput, interference, etc.)

We have quite a few of these in the field with UBNT Sectors and KPerformance Sectors. What we run into is customer complaints about slow speeds at night when they call into after hours support. We come in the next day and run speed tests to the radios and they look ok. Some APs have 20 subs and some as high as 50 subs. Yesterday one of our employees ran speed tests from his home connected to one of those APs during the day and he got 15M. Then that evening he tried to watch Netflix - biggest complaint from most subs - and it would not start. He ran a speed test and got 500K. The AP he is connected to has 19 subs. Trying to figure out just how many subs streaming on an AP will bring the through put down to 500K? We are considering limiting how many streams can run on a given AP but need to figure where the breaking point is if that makes any sense. Thanks for any insight any one can shed on this. -- Arthur Stephens Senior Networking Technician Ptera Inc.
