MikroTik

Hy all,
I have a problem with nstreme.

Position:
Site A: RB112, SR5, sectorial antenna 16dBi, 1549m asl
Site B: RB112, SR5, panel antenna 24dBi, 60m asl ca.
Freq. 5825, 5GHz band (no turbo) and no nstreme: 10Mbps udp/receive.
Freq. 5825, 5GHz band (no turbo) and nstreme: 7Mbps udp/receive.

Why? Is it normal?

try to tur off connection tracking you may get better results, but suggest you to have mroe powerfull PCU there to do Nstream

Ok, thanks for the answer.
So, wich is the minimum hardware (CPU/RAM) to make a powerful link with nstreme enable?
May be a RB532 the solution?

Thanks

I've got a similar set-up using 532's and SR5's doing PTP. The cpu is constantly at 30% but bandwidth is decent.
I've got another set-up thats a 2ghz machine running 3 SR9's and 3 CM9's all with Nstreame. That one rarely goes over 2% cpu useage.

If I remember correctly the suggested is 850 or above.

Ok, and...which is your bandwidth?

Test setup, with result:

2xRB532 (each with 2*CM9 card; 5200 and 5280Mhz)
(signal strength=68, 36Mbit connect speed; STN=28, TX=Card/23dbi)
4xGrante 60cm

app. 21km distance, clear visible conditions,

14-14,5Mbit average bandwith (65-78% of CPU usage)

Yes, active link for 1,5 weeks now.

Perfect. I retried this evening. I tried the same 60km link with 5Ghz band (without turbo), nstreme enable, conn-track disable, 2xRB112, 2xSR5, 1x sect.antenna 16dBi, 1x grid antenna 24dBi: 13-14Mbps (UDP receive)!
Thanks

with TCP, what is the difference?

yea hydro you left out the key part, the Bandwidth numbers.

thanks

with TCP, what is the difference?

With 13-14Mbps UDP-->9,5-10Mbps TCP.
