Change from the minstrel algorithm

  • 772

I would like to stop my network card from using the Minstrel algorithm because of a problem I am having.

I have tried creating /etc/modprobe.d/80211.conf with the following in it:

options mac80211
ieee80211_default_rc_algo=pid

But that doesn't seem to work.

Any ideas?

    You must put the whole thing on one line:

    options mac80211 ieee80211_default_rc_algo=pid

    And then reboot.

    Confirm the parameter has taken effect:

    cat /sys/module/mac80211/parameters/ieee80211_default_rc_algo
