AREDN mesh networks don't appear to have the bandwidth you might expect. This project looks at what may be happening and how to fix it.

Experiment
The Link Quality Management (LQM) experiment was run for a few weeks between April and June 2022. The experiment can be found here. It provided some simple tools to monitor and modify what link quality was acceptable. Experimental results between nodes on the BAM network were extremely encouraging with typical bandwidth improvements of 300% observed.
Integration
AREDN release 3.22.6.0 (June 2022) will be the first release of the AREDN firmware to include LQM, but it will be disabled by default. LQM can be enabled on the Advanced Configuration page. LQM will be enabled by default in future releases.
