    Posted Sep 18, 2013 11:55 AM

    Hi All,

     

    We are facing issues with sppedteston wireless with aruba ap´s 105 ans 7200 controller.

     

    Link to the internet is 50mbps and we are getting only 3-4 mbps on wireless.

     

    What could be the issue?


    Aruba is connected to the " internet HP Switch" that connects to Fortinet firewall.

     

    I could send you the scheme of the network

    Config attached..

     

    Regards

    - How many access points?

    - What version of ArubaOS

    - What encryption are your clients using?

    - How many SSIDs

    - Did you do an internal speedtest

    - What client did you do the speedtest with?

    You need to put "drop broadcast and multicast" on BOTH of your virtual Aps.

    Are you testing with an 802.11n client?
    How many users are connected to that access point when you are testing?
    Are your access points connected to gigabit ethernet ports?

    for today the wireless ssid´s  are restricted only to a few test users.

    i will check tomorrow if i Put on both drop broadcast and multicast...

    link over the wired 50mbps

     

    link on wireless 4 to 6 mbps

     

    This is strange.

     

    Aruba is connected on gi 0/0/1 to a procurve switch ( force 100 full).   Then this switch is connected to Fortinet

    Do you see any errors on the Aruba or procurve interfaces?  type show interface on the Aruba side to make sure it did not negotiate poorly or have any errors.

    Is it on auto or is it fixed? You have the other side fixed, right?

    I would open a support case, because your problem could exist in many places, and it would take awhile to guess all of those places here.

    its already open.

    fixed on both sides

    done.

     

    Port on the procurve switch was  set to auto...

     

    Aruba was forced at 100 mbps full.

     

    Problem solved! auto on both ends!

     

    Thanks cjoseph
