[c-nsp] Cisco Aironet Multi/Broadcast limit

[Frank Bulk]

As Gustavo said, the 802.11 standard requires sending multicast traffic at
the 'basic' rate.

See:

for more details.

Have you tried configuring speed throughput on the AP? This would set
"basic" speed behaviour on all speeds other than 1.0 Mbps.
This is necessary for the AP to send broadcast/multicast traffic.

Subject: [c-nsp] Cisco Aironet Multi/Broadcast limit

I've got a Cisco 1231G Access Point which I'm
rather happy with. However, I would like to enjoy
IPTV on my laptop and as this is sent out as
multicast and my Aironet limits all multicast and
broadcast traffic to 1Mbps the shows aren't very
enjoyable. I've looked around somewhat, poked in
the cisco, done a few google searches.. but
apparently my Google Kung Fu isn't up to the job
or there just isn't an option for this.
Can anyone shed some light on the subject?

Thank you
Regards,
   Kristian.
