**Fine-Tuning Linux Network with TCP BBR**

Fine-tuning your network is essential for optimizing performance and ensuring smooth communication between devices. One way to achieve this is by configuring TCP BBR, a congestion control algorithm developed by Google that aims to maximize network throughput and minimize latency.

Installing it is very simple:

   apt update

   apt upgrade

   apt install iproute2

   nano /etc/sysctl.conf

and enter these two lines at the end of your configuration file

   net.core.default_qdisc=fq
   net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=bbr

save and close the file. 

For applying the canges do a:

  sysctl -p

Verify if the setting is active with:

  sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control

You should see “bbr” as the output, indicating that TCP BBR is now configured on your system.

That's all.
