Problem bandwidth FortiAP 14C

[Charl_Schippers]

Hello,

We use FAP14C accesspoints, but the maximuspeed that we have is 65 Mbps.  What kind of wireless network card we use, the speed is not more than 65 Mpbs.

Is 65 Mpbs the max speed off the FAP14C? or can we change some settings to get more speed.

Regards,

14C is 2.4G only 1X1 MIMO 11N AP.  For 20MHz channel bandwidth, 65Mbps is the maximal data rate it can provide.

You can enable the channel bonding to use 40MHz channel, which will increase the rate to 150Mbps.  But this feature will only can work if there is no other 20MHz APs surrounding this 14C.  If not, 14C will fallback to 20MHz channel.

If more data rate is needed, you should replace FAP-14C with FAP-221B (2X2 MIMO) or FAP-320B (3X3 MIMO).
