[iwlwifi] Change MIMO Bit Rates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear all,

>From linux-wireless documentation for iw, I find that setting
preferences for transmitting using MCS rates is not yet supported.
Does it mean I cannot set different MIMO rate through iw CLI?

What is the default MIMO bit rate the iwl5000 would use? I setting up
an ad-hoc connection between two laptops equipped with Intel 5300
cards with 3 antennas each. I find the bit rate is only 5.5Mbps when I
use "iw dev ah0 station dump" to check. It seems not a MIMO bit rate.

Maybe I miss something. Does anyone have any idea?

Thank you very much.

Best,

Jack
