interface wireless set compression=yes - does this work?

Tue May 29, 2018 10:37 pm

I'm curious about this wireless option:
interface wireless set compression=yes
Wiki says: Setting this property to yes will allow the use of the hardware compression. Wireless interface must have support for hardware compression. Connections with devices that do not use compression will still work.

But it does not work for me, all device connections are still showing with compression "no".
Even connection between two Mikrotiks (RB951G-2HnD and RB941-2nD-TC) stays without compression.

Which hardware supports this compression?
What I am doing wrong? Or which settings conflict with this compression that it is not applied?
Does it actually make sense to use it (for 802.11n)?
Or should I simply set it back to default compression=no and forget about it? :)

Compression is obsolete from a long time ago.
It's not present in winbox also.

I see, nothing interesting then...
I am setting it back to default "compression=no" :)
