How to calculate bandwidth limits per user on WiFi network
- by Lars
A typical 802.11g access point can provide around 25 Mbps of bandwidth. How is the bandwidth shared among the users?
Furthermore, how many users can be served by a single access point using 802.11g in an environment with low interference, and average web activity from the users?
The goal is to use bandwidth limitation to avoid starvation for some users in case some of the users start to download a file or stream HD video or some other bandwidth intensive activity.
Can someone break down the math on this?
