I have a TP-Link TL-WN881ND N300 PCI-E Wireless in my PC with Bionic LTS server.
I noticed in the syslog:
Oct 14 00:37:54 localhost kernel: [ 6326.989561] TCP: wlp30s0: Driver has suspect GRO implementation, TCP performance may be compromised.
As consequence, doing internet speed tests between my 5 yr old laptop and PC... the PC is about 10Mpbs slower on the same wifi.
Is there anything I can do about this and make the TP-Link faster? A better driver?
from dmesg:
root@localhost:/home/one# dmesg | grep -i wifi
[ 4.456743] rtl8192ee: Using firmware rtlwifi/rtl8192eefw.bin
[ 4.482943] rtlwifi: rtlwifi: wireless switch is on
I downgraded from Bionic Beaver LTS to Xenial LTS and it fixed both issues. I am no longer getting the message and my speeds are up to what they should be at 32mpbs(10 mpbs faster).
