Hi dear osmocom folks,

I have been doing some bitrate throughput tests from different MS (i.e. phones
models) connected to a working osmo-nitb/sgsn/ggsn configuration (with a nanoBTS
DCS1800) and i get 15kbits/s maximum (tcp/udp transfer) with the gprs subnet nat-ed to a 100baseT
lan connected to a 2Mbits/s dsl line

The channel configuration is as follow in the osmo-nitb configuration file : 


<file /etc/osmocom/bsc.conf>
(...)
   nominal power 23
   max_power_red 0
   rsl e1 tei 0
    timeslot 0
     phys_chan_config CCCH+SDCCH4
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 1
     phys_chan_config TCH/F
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 2
     phys_chan_config TCH/F
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 3
     phys_chan_config TCH/F
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 4
     phys_chan_config TCH/F
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 5
     phys_chan_config TCH/F
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 6
     phys_chan_config TCH/F
!     hopping enabled 0
    timeslot 7
     phys_chan_config PDCH

</file>

Should i change the channel configuration to get more bitrate ? 
Should add more cells (bts?) to add more channels ?

my best, cheers.

Xavier.
