Use this in the CLI to check if its active:

```auto
 cat /sys/class/ieee80211/phy*/device/driver/module/parameters/wed_enable

```

If it errors there is no file it probably is disabled, Y means enabled, it does it for both 2.4ghz and 5ghz.

And in `/etc/modules.conf`

You put:

```auto
# examples:
# options mod1 option=val
# blacklist mod2
options mt7915e wed_enable=N

```

The default value should be N.

Thanks for suggestion. Im aware of this solution, but not sure this works on closed mtk. As there is no modules.conf file..

Only way to verify is with:

`cat /sys/class/ieee80211/phy*/device/driver/module/parameters/wed_enable`

That is taken from the runtime directly reported by the linux kernel driver, i dont think that sys call differ between mtk version and normal openwrt, the modules.conf might be, but then you should have a look here as well `/etc/modules.d`, honestly i never seen this enabled by default on gl-inet images, i could be mistaken.

You can turn off hardware acceleration and WED will be off as well.
