We use quite a few different RAPs (AP61, AP93H, RAP5, AP125), and we've noticed that WAN throughput performance generally hovers around 50% of available bandwidth.
For example, connecting directly to a wired connection gives a FTP throughput of say 14Mbps.
Where connecting to a RAP doing split tunneling (DHCP over tunnel, everything else routed locally), our bandwidth drops to 7Mbps.
Switch the connection to a 100Mbps wired connection, and again, direct connection yields 80Mbps while the RAP gives 20-30Mbps.
This is consistent across different RAPs, and we have ruled out broadcast traffic, ARM, or anything that looks like it would get in the way. I'm currently testing on a lab setup to rule out any other factors that could affect this, and I am the only client connected to the test RAP.
I see quite a few threads about similar issues but I don't see many solutions offered other than calling the TAC.
Are there specific configuration areas I should be focusing on to help diagnose and resolve this issue?
My lab is currently running 6.1.3.1.
