as of our experiment we did not notice any speed increase because we are hitting around 400+kbps already
BAM is Bandwidth Authentication Manager, it restricts your subscription to whatever bandwidth you have subscribed. e.g if you have 384kbps like mine you'll get 384kbps not more than that, but for SmartBro we have an upburst of around ~512kbps max to we are also hitting 400+kbps and for those who hit more than 512kbps their SM's are not capped by the BAM yet or maybe the AP and SM are using different software versions (conflicts can happen) for now i've upgraded to 8.2 canopy software version (i have a canopy classic SM not canopy lite, if you have an advantage canopy so much the better)
