Dear OpenWRT community,
Config:
I use two TP-LINK Archer c2600 (OpenWRT 19.07.1) as dumb AP's.
- using the tutorial on openwrt about dumb AP
- added a VLAN (guest ethernet and wireless)
- and installed irqbalance (and enabled), nano, iperf3 and
i.e. very simple setup.Also verifed irqbalance is working (seems to have no impact on LAN speed).
Problem:
Therefore as using only LAN ports with iperf3 I realized I may have an issue ?
- c2600 to c2600 -> 250 MBit/s
- c2600 to bouygues.iperf.fr -> 250 to 350 MBit/s
- c2600 to my router or server -> 480 to 520 MBit/s
- router or server to c2600 -> 850 to 870 MBits/s
- router or server to bouygues.iperf.fr -> 930 to 940 MBit/s
My router (i7-3770, 4GB RAM, i210-T1 NIC's, OpenWRT 19.07.1) gets 933 MBit/s to bouygues.iperf.fr,
same for my server (i3-8100, headless Linux 4.19).
So I'm pretty puzzled, I thought LAN-to-LAN with firewall off should be at least 900 MBit/s ?
What's the problem, and how can I solve it ?
Can I find something in logs or should I turn off irqbalance etc ?
Many thanks ! and
cheers Blinton
