    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    I’d encourage you to verify with simple testing. Even just running from a Windows command prompt ‘ping -n 10000 1.1.1.1’ and saturating the connection with a download and looking at the latency increase. Or you can try the Waveform bufferbloat test.

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Actually Starlink has come on leaps and bounds such that I’m not even sure bufferbloat is an issue for Starlink connections these days. Try saturating the connection and seeing how much latency increases under a ping test. Probably by only a small amount now. If that’s indeed the case, the only...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Thanks - done: https://github.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/commit/91cefa5ca66a8d33ac59264c3ab2444f2567dcd4 I've also changed the post-install guidance to: https://github.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/commit/41198015d829576853a0bc66637cc4ed17c5523d As we know that this works and there is an...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Excellent news! What does total CPU usage look like for cake-autorate on your device? You can check with ‘atop 2’, then tap ‘p’ to collate the processes, and observe the total CPU percentage for 'bash'.

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Many thanks for this information @underdose. I've just added a dependency check for mktemp and mention in the documentation to install coreutils-mktemp. The temporary asus-merlin branch was deleted as the changes were pulled into the master branch. Please use the instructions as outlined here...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    @rlj2 is mktemp not available by default in Asus Merlin? Looks like there may still be a couple of issues needing ironed out.

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    There's been a lot of progress and I think it's working now - see: https://github.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/pull/299

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Please can you try running with: sh ./setup.sh lynxthecat/cake-autorate asus-merlin

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Yes, ideally. I think you'd just enable CAKE on the Asus Merlin router. Make sure these are installed: entware; bash; iputils-ping; and fping. And then run: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/asus-merlin/setup.sh chmod +x ./setup.sh ./setup.sh...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    @rlj2 can advise there concerning his fork. It'll be very simple. The installer we're working on for the main code has an associated uninstaller with code to handle the Asus Merlin instance. https://github.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/blob/master/uninstall.sh We really should get any issues...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    Hmm. That won't help us move the needle in terms of getting the installer on the main code base to work for Asus Merlin routers. @rlj2 can you perhaps help us out in terms of what's missing? I think it's worthwhile trying to strike while the iron is hot in terms of adding support for Asus Merlin.

    Can you show the full output with error message please?

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    In the Asus Merlin GUI? In which case, 'manual' most likely. I'm not sure what 'automatic' does in the GUI? Can anyone explain that?

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    For those reading it looks like good progress is getting made towards making an installer for cake-autorate on Asus Merlin. So users with variable rate connections like 4G/5G/DOCSIS/cable can enjoy the benefit of cake with the bandwidth correctly set on the fly. This would be a significantly...

    Yes, ideally. I think you'd just enable CAKE on the Asus Merlin router. Make sure these are installed: entware; bash; iputils-ping; and fping. And then run: wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/master/setup.sh chmod +x ./setup.sh ./setup.sh And then edit the config...

    Would you or anyone else be able to test I wonder?

    We are trying to add support for Asus Merlin to cake-autorate. Can anyone please test this out: https://github.com/lynxthecat/cake-autorate/pull/292

    CakeQOS Cake-autorate

    Yes true - we identified switching times at 15 second intervals as per: XX:12, XX:27, XX:42 and XX:57 - see discussion around here: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/cake-w-adaptive-bandwidth-historic/108848/3153?u=lynx I put in some experimental code in cake-autorate to try to address that...

    CakeQOS Cake-autorate

    Yes cake-autorate has been stable for quite a while now. And it really works on Asus Merlin - see these stats based on a log file generated by @rlj2 on Asus Merlin using a Starlink connection: ReflectorID: 1.0.0.1; N: 120 ReflectorID: 156.154.70.3; N: 118 ReflectorID: 185.228.168.10; N: 119...
