>Hi, I am testing network bandwidth between two linux systems that are
given a
>5Mbit pipe over a wireless connection. Testing results are '18Mbit/sec'
using iperf ; results using ttcp are around 2.5Mbit/sec.
>Monitoring traffic on the actual system gives me 2.XMbit/sec. Is there
some configuration I am missing? Why are the statistics from iperf so high?
