How do I Disable Concurrent Mode?
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Step 1: Open a terminal (e.g. Ctrl+Alt+T)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Step 2: Move to the driver directory
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
cd ~/src/88x2bu-20210702
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Step 3: Run the cmode-off.sh script
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
sudo ./cmode-off.sh
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Step 4: Run the remove-driver.sh script
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
sudo ./remove-driver.sh
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Step 5: Follow the installation instructions but do not run the
|
||||||
|
optional `cmode-on.sh script`.
