i am currently working on a simple WAN network. I am using wireless radios to interconnect 5 sites. I have a low end linux router at the central station and workstations on the remote end. Each remote stations would have 3 to 5 computers. The thing is, speed is not that sufficient enough linking from a remote station to the central station. Using an application with a higher bandwidth usage wouldnt budge though the pipe. The throughput of the radios are 700 kbps. Do i need some additional hardware to pick up some speed? Please help....

Linux routing processes packets differently than say a Cisco Router. I would guess that your problem is your low end router, but the only way to tell for sure it to analyze it.

BTW Your simple WAN is not simple if you are using wireless anything. Now you have attenuation to deal with and interferance problems.

Is there any way to do this with fiber? how far apart are they?
