Wi-Fi throughput

Throughput test setup

  • Environment: Shield Room - Over the Air

  • Access Point: Asus AX88u

  • DUT: RW610/RW612

  • External Client: Intel AX210

  • Channel: 6 | 36

  • Wi-Fi application: wifi_cli

  • Compiler used to build application: armgcc

  • Compiler version gcc-arm-none-eabi-13.2

  • iPerf commands used in test:

TCP TX

iperf -c <remote_ip> -t 60

TCP RX

iperf -s

UDP TX

iperf -c <remote_ip> -t 60 -u -B <local_ip> -b 120

Note: The default rate is 100 Mbps.

UDP RX

iperf -s -u -B <local_ip>
