I have a question/issue regarding connection speeds. I have several Aruba RAP-3 deployed at various locations. The RAPs are managed by a Aruba 3400 Series Wireless Controller running 6.2.1.4 OS. The RAPs are able to reach the controller without an issue. No problem with connectivity.
However, I see that all the connected clients Max Speed(bps) read 144m with 2.4 Ghz Band. The Radio PHY readsn 40 Mhz. The client workstation PHY reads n 20 Mhz.
Bandsteering is enable on the controller and prefer 5Ghz is set as default. Allowed band is set to 'All'.
When I change the change the 'Bandwidth Capability' to 11a/b/g:20/40Mhz, instead of the windows default 11a:20/40,11bg:20Mhz on my wireless NIC, the wireless controller reads my max speed to be '300m' and Radio PHY as n 40 Mhz / Client PHY n 40 Mhz. Also, I ntoice that the health% improves too.
Is there a setting on the wireless controller that would improve the max speed time for the workstations? Is the windows default setting the cause of the issue?
