Went from 30mbps on speed tests in firefox to 130 and was able to get 90-120mbps testing with Steam.

OS: Linux Mint. mptcpize is in the apt repo.

mptcpize

I just heard about mptcp, and it looks interesting. From what I understand (from its Wikipedia page ) it uses multiple links, correct? If so, which ones did you use? Wifi and Ethernet?

Looks very interesting, I should recommend someone I know to try on their steamdeck (when connected to the dock) to speed up Steam downloads.

Literally did nothing diffrent other than using mptcp run prepend on program exicute. Same wifi connection. Everything else unchanged.
