Hello Roohollah Parvizi:

-There could be many reasons, but first, you want to check the link speed
that you are getting from the switch (requires 1000Mbps connection -
100Mbps won't work).

-rx_samples_to_file is part of UHD (not GNURadio application, although
somewhat related). I believe it is not capable of MIMO synchronization
without modifications (please correct me if I am wrong). You can download
its source code from the UHD Github project and adapt it if you want.

-It is probably easier to use GNURadio. I am actually not sure if you have
GNURadio on your system, since that rx_samples_to_file is bundled with UHD,
not with GNURadio. Anyway, if you have it installed on your PC, you should
be able to use GNURadio Companion to write a short program out of it. On
GNURadio Compaion, you should add a "UHD: USRP Source" block and set "Num
Mboards" = 2 and match settings with your configurations (Will have to set
device address, Mb0/1 Clock/Time source, etc).


Regards,
Kyeong Su Shin
