    Channel, channel width, config in terms of this being L2 or L3 mesh (VPLM, etc), also note that 10m might be over-driving the radios. What is the mesh link RSSI? You may have to back the power off a bit.

    Channel = 100 (auto)

    channel width = 40 MHz

     config in terms of this being L2 or L3 mesh= L2

    What is the mesh link RSSI= test (mesh link)

    You may have to back the power off a bit = why ?

    What is the distance between the devices?

     

    Outdoor AP radios are very sensitive, so if they are very close to each other there will be distortion at the receiver and it is possible that you can also overdrive the radio, causing possible permanent damage.

    Already explained the power issue, if the radios are too close or too loud, they can overdrive the receivers and cause performance issues. If the intent is to get max performance in a lab, you likely won't. They aren't designed for that and don't work optimally when the APs are too close together, too loud, combination of, etc. Max rate is 120-140Mbps, so you getting 100Mbps is likely max for 11n HT40 in that setup.

    thanks howard for the replay,  i will try to reduce the power , but if the the Theoretical speed is 300 mbps , am expecting to recieve at least 50 % in lab envirment , so what are your recommendation to bust up the speed in my lab.
