Hi everyone , I have another question,
I'm in my office testing the throughput speed of NAP, but somehow I couldn't get a decent speed as you've advertised, networking is kind of new to me, is there anyone who can help??

    Hi WebberIT,

    In general, the factors to lead the low throughput might be wireless interference or connectivity problem of the wired network.
    So, check your AP's link status first to make sure your wired connection speed is in 1000Mbps.
    If it's no problem with the wired connection, then enable DCS (Dynamic Channel Selection) to allow your AP choose a less congested channel which can avoid the wireless interference.

    Here's a guide for Link-Speed Trouble Shooting:
    Wireless linkspeeds/throughput are low on NAP

    I found the problem, there are people in my office also testing throughput at the same time, I also see DCS change the channel in the eventlogs. This is useful information, thanks alot!

    It really took me some time to find out why my NAP102 was capped below 100Mbps. thanks for the tip !
