Cisco WAP 581

[Vicebal]

Hi,

I've got 5 cisco WAP 581 which are connected to HP 1920s with PoE Switch and they are propagate wireless network with radius authentication.

I' have a problem with a speed of wirelless network.

When the network is empty, or in the network is 2-3 people the speed is 300/300 mbps.

But after 5 minutes the speed slows down for 2/10 mbps. It's very strange. The access points are new, so they shouldn't have problem with speed of network.

The access point settings are default, i've only changed the vlans and create cluster, and add wireless network.

Anyone has familiar problem?

Second question.

Have to I add cluster management ip for cluster? Or that field can be 0.0.0.0?

RF is a shared medium and any Wi-Fi network or non Wi-Fi transmission could affect transmissions.

Wireless speed and performance do not depend only on the specifications of the APs nor the connected clients.

If the performance of the connection shifts down or up suddenly, you must investigate if your APs are sharing the same broadcast domain (frequency) than other neightbour networks or there is a RF interferer disrupting transmissions.

Maybe a WLAN survey or Spectrum survey will be needed to investigate Layer 1, and then if nothing is found, you can start investigating configurations.
