@chili555 I've seen examples of usage \"blacklist bad_driver"\ as well so perhaps the question is will the code be recognized or read with the quotes in place. I have done nothing to my blacklist file I am just trying to be accurate and thorough for others reading and using the answer. Thanks again, wifi is great.

I was wondering if you had the command with the quotes right? When I first opened the blasklist.conf file it looked like "blacklist rtw88_8821ce" and I took the quotes off manually in the file. Look at two day ago post time stamp 6:09 am
