Hi Johannes,
Just a quick question about the bitrate info shown with 'iw link'. I
assume the MCS info reported is the MCS related to the bitrate number so
the current/last MCS used and not some maximum MCS.
Regards,
Arend

It's a bit dependent on drivers, it can be either the "current best"
bitrate (definitely the case with minstrel) or sometimes just the "last
frame" bitrate which isn't really such a great indicator.
