Summary: PTP link \| Master - MT 433 (6.0rc9) with XR2, Slave - UBNT Bullet2HP (XS2.ar2316.v4.0.2.4996.120423.0955) \| 802.11b \| signal Tx/Rx -68/-67 dBm \| noise floor -99dBm \| signal to noise 30 dB 1. At the beginning, I established a fixed ACK Timeout/Distance on both side with 27 kilometers and I was having a ~ 3.5 Mbps throughput rate. However, after selecting dynamics on the MT unit and activating the auto adjust on the UBNT unit, my rate has improve immediately to 7.2 Mbps. 2. I also noticed that during no data transfer, my Rx/Tx CCQ is ~33/100% but when I start transmitting it goes up to 100/100%. (?)

Too short and you have way to many retransmits because the radio's are getting ACK packets too soon if at all.. It's a TCP thing LOL -- »www.wirelessdatanet.net
