I have the CYW943907AEVAL on hand, And want to test the throughput between WiFi direct(P2P) and STA (connect to wifi router) mode. Is there any exist code or result base on TCP/IP?

Or in principle, which mode is faster for data transmission?

Hi JeCa_1329876

P2P and STA mode are two different modes whose operations are fundamentally different and their throughput's shouldn't be compared as such. For example a P2P interface is used for peer to peer communication such as screen mirroring whereas an STA is meant to be used along with protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP, MQTT etc.

Also, there's no code base of TCP/IP to be used with P2P interface in WICED. It is better to use the STA interface which is better suited for these applications.

Thanks
