ACK timeout problem - users cannot connect or get kicked out

Thu Nov 04, 2004 6:36 pm

We have a problem with ap-bridge:
ack-timeout is set to dynamic.
We have around 15-30 users/sector. There are specific users - when these users connect the ACK-timeout raises to around 400us - and then the MikroTik sometimes kicks out one previously connected user and doesn't let new user to connect. The users are suffering from continous disconnect/etc.

Previously we had Buffalo WLA-s and didn't have any problem like that, anyone could connect. We had higher ping times an slightly higher packet loss ratios in the peak times when everyone was connected but that's all, so I think that nothign wrong with the "joker" solution - the cabling. In addition the minipci cards are more powerful than the WLA's.

Additional info: the users with high ack timeout may have also excellent connection - tx/rx speed 24/36 mbit/s!!!!

did 2.8.19 or anything else solve the problem? (we have a similar problem, but changing ack-timeouts didn't help).
regards.

we changed the ack timeout from dynamic to static and found out that 1-300us is the optimal but despite of that the network doesn't function properly, but the connect/disconnect error doesn't come up.

We replaced 5213s to 5212s, and get 30 as ack time with dynamic settings. with 5213s we had the same problems...
(we use 2.8.19)
