One potential fix for Linux Mint wireless performance

If wireless performance is poor within Linux Mint, one potential source could be power management for the adapter.  Use the following command to determine if power management is currently enabled:

iwconfig


If enabled, use the following command and modify "3" to a "2".

sudo nano /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-on.conf


To avoid a reboot, use the following commands.

sudo iwconfig wlp107s0 power off

sudo systemctl restart network-manager.service
