Excuse the naive question, but if I were to try using a different 
rate control algorithm than the default one, then how specifically 
would I go about doing so?  Currently I just do

         kldload -v if_ath

Should I also (or instead?) run
         kldload -v ath_rate_onoe
or something??

Ideally, I'd prefer not to have to change the default algorithm, but 
something with the current "ath" driver is just not working well for me.

         Ross.
