I'll answer my own question with a quick google search ... "For various reasons having to do with the ordering of messages on iperf3's control channel, the server cannot print summary statistics from the client side. This is a known issue (there are various issues in the iperf3 issue tracker around this problem such as #560 and #314). It's not particularly easy to fix because a solution to this problem would involve changing the ordering or semantics of iperf3's control messages which, unfortunately, aren't particularly well documented. We (ESnet) would be happy to entertain possible fixes."

I've been responding with the results from the client for these - I've only just looked but this is a bit strange, is this expected on the server-side?

I'm not on that site at present, and I didn't record details of the wifi connection. This is the same laptop at a different site (connecting to older equipment - the comparison isn't exactly the same) which is what I would more expect to get.

Hi Rob Good to know that you go this sorted out, even if you don't know why/what the problem might have been. I don't see the red cross between the devices as you did. Craig.

"test Failed" is happening on Switches, + other WAPs. This I think is a recent issue, as we've had slow access since July (we investigated many other things before the Wifi as we assumed the issue was server-related -a the one thing we've never had issues with is Meraki Wi-Fi!). The link is set as : Link negotiation Auto negotiate (1 Gbps)

ap.meraki.com - usually gives 25-30. (I've replaced a Rukus system that was quite old, which didn't seem to have these issues - it may be that these issues were there but we just blamed it on "old & poor wifi")

I've tried SSIDs in bridge & not bridge mode. Iperf3 has been used, but I didn't record specific data 1) Client 1 on Wifi AP1, Clien2 on Wifi AP1 (eg both connected to the same WAP) = Good Speeds (eg 30Mb +) 2) Different Aps (so WAP1 > LAN > WAP2) slow speeds (8Mb at most) 3) Wifi to LAN = Slow speeds (8Mb at most) General "internet" speeds are good, but it may be that the slower internet is expected by users (eg Teams works fine on wireless)

> Have you updated the WiFi driver on your machines? Wifi drivers are as up to date as can be - either manufacturer (usually dell) or via direct downloads from driver websites (eg intel). The same Laptops do not have the same issues at other sites. > Are you using 5Ghz (I would disable 2.4Ghz altogether)? Some devices need a further range of 2.4ghz - we have tried Per SSID 2.4 o 5 config (to see if it one or the other). Band steering is off on all SSIDs. > Is your AP deployment dense? If so, use 20Mhz for your channel width. Channel width is set to 20 > Have you increased the minimum bit rate to 12Mb/s for the SSID (or WiFi in general)? Minimum Bitrate is 12 - 54 (802.11b is not supported)

Hi I have a current setup that includes MS425 (stacks), M225 (stacks) and MR36 WAPs, as well as a Windows Cluster, Windows Server, and standalone servers. Connections between servers are either LACP/Team (2 x 10Gb), or individual RJ45 (1 x 1GB). Stacks are done via stacking cables, with LACP links to other stacks (eg 3 x 10Gb copper SFP connections) When on RJ45 connected LAN, we have good performance, but as soon as we go wireless, we are getting very poor transfer speeds (this is particularly noticeable on file access to windows servers, but does seem to affect other things - eg Group policy, DNS, Pings - one thing we don't get complaints over is internet speed). As an example, transferring a 300Gb file from LAN -> Wifi, will give us a transfer rate of 2/3 Mb a sec. Transfering the same file, from LAN to LAN will get us 100Mb+ speeds.This is similar when using Client > LAN > Virtual Server, Client > LAN >Clustered Physical Server (LACP), Client > LAN > Stand alone server (Single Connection). If I do two file transfers from Wifi -> Wifi on the same AP (for example a laptop to laptop) then it's around 30Mb a sec (which is what I would expect). As soon as the Laptops are on different APs (even though connected to the same switch) then the rate falls to 2/3Mb a sec. I've turned off meshing, I've had Meraki look at config (and recommended a firmware update as well as increasing the base speed to ignore wireless B), I've created Access policies with unrestricted (instead of normal), Fixed IP addresses, access via IP rather than DNS names. Basically, it's quicker to download a file from SharePoint, than it is to access a local server and download the same file.

Apologies for bringing this message up from the dead - I wondered if you ever had this resolved, as I'm getting a similar issue with Wifi <-> LAN traffic.
