Dear Bob, dear all, I have performed several tests using 11s in the last days and the results are really looking promising. Like expected the bitrate is decreasing when I move one node away from a second one. For further experiments it would be great to use one specific bitrate. I tried to use iw command for that "iw dev mesh set bitrates mcs-2.4 4" "iw dev mesh set bitrates legacy-2.4 1"
But this don't work for me. Is there a way to set the bitrate to a fixed value? Would be really great if you can help me with that!
