Configuring IAP-135 to Support 3 Spatial Streams Up to 450Mbps

  • 1.  Configuring IAP-135 to Support 3 Spatial Streams Up to 450Mbps

    Posted Nov 25, 2018 11:06 AM

    Hey everyone,

     

    I just set up a couple Aruba Instant AP-135 that I purchased on eBay recently. I have them all set up, but I'm only able to get 300Mbps on my MacBook Air that I'm using to test.

     

    I have one of the APs set up as the master and all of them seem to be giving me the same result. The datasheets state that the 135's are capable of 450Mbps utilizing 3 spatial streams of 150Mbps each. How can I configure this? I ran into the same issue with Cisco 1142N's before, but the resolution was to enable channel bonding.

     

    I'm authenticating with WPA2-Personal, fast roaming k/v/r all on. Aruba OS Version 6.4.4.8-4.2.4.11_64223.

     

    For RF-ARM:

    Band steering mode: Prefer 5Ghz

    Airtime fairness mode: Prefer access

    Wide channel bands: All

    80Mhz support: Enabled

    The macbook air only supports  2x2 with two spatial streams so you will not get it to associate any higher than that:  https://clients.mikealbano.com/
