Download speed not going higher than 30 megabit on Meru Wireless

[sheraz35]

Hi,

 

We have a 100 meg internet connection, on the wired I get a download speed of 88 megabit when I try it on the wireless I all ways get below 30 it averages in the 20s, this is literally sitting right under the AP, and the speed between my laptop and the ap is 270 megabit.

 

We have a Meru Wireless controller and LWAP does anyone know of any settings that could be limiting the speed to not go any higher than 30?

 

Thanks

Does it work at higher speeds to other places on your network?

Hi,

 

Nah it doesn't, where ever I go in the building no matter what time of day it is even at midnight when there's no one in the office it doesn't go any higher than 30 megabit. Below is image of an individual AP's settings.

IF there are b/g clients present the speed gets limited, but I think it is only in that area and not on the whole network.

There is a thread about it here: https://community.merunetworks.com/merunetworks/topics/802-11b-data-rates

 

I would be inclined to look at the wired speeds between the controller and AP/firewall and make sure that is all working well first.
