Hi,
I want to test TP-Link WDR3500 performance using iperf. According to
TP-Link specifications, they could reach up to 600 Mbps using both 2.4
and 5 GHz bands. The problem is that as they are 100Mbps Ethernet, if I
run iperf from a PC connected to the Ethernet port, I'll be limited to
100Mbps. On the other hand, when running iperf from inside the routers,
they don't transmit more than 50 Mbps, limited by the processor.
I've read that removing some kernel modules like iptables it would be
possible to increase throughput when running iperf in routers, so I've
been trying with rmmod, but I couldn't remove iptables modules, I get
for example:
root@OpenWrt:/# rmmod ip_tables
rmmod: can't unload 'ip_tables': Resource temporarily unavailable
I guess that's because some dependencies, so I tried removing other
modules first, without success. Also I searched for a modprobe package
in opkg, but I couldn't find it.
I'd appreciate some ideas on how to achieve these measurements. Thanks!
Gabriel
