    BE88U on 3006.102.4 - Enable QoS?

    Most definitely a limitation considering most low powered devices, such as routers, have a bunch of slower/efficient cores. Also curiously does maxing out a core ruin CAKE performance? So you always aim for a bandwidth limit that doesn't cause you to get throttled by a single core?

    BE88U on 3006.102.4 - Enable QoS?

    Why can't it work on multiple cores? Intrinsic to CAKE or just the implantation for Merlin? It seems like adaptive works across all cores. It would explain why it's broken, but people like spreading hopium. Seems like bufferbloat is the next boogieman that needs to be nailed down perfectly.

    BE88U on 3006.102.4 - Enable QoS?

    Bumping this up here. I also have a BE88 and was trying to figure out why Adaptive QoS doesn't seem to work, looks like it's broken across the board. I had been using CAKE, but wanted to try adaptive, which doesn't work. I noticed with CAKE it's only using 1 core and maxing it out? It really...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    I guess I should clarify where this is happening a bit more. I get this issue while streaming (utilizing my upload to Twitch). When I either have a steam download running or I use the google speed test (only when it's testing the download, the upload has no effect) the upload on my OBS stream...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    I want to point out I found another scenario in which this happens. It seems the google built in speed test causes issues as well, for some weird reason. Other speed tests don't seem to have a issue, but the google one causes latency issues and hiccups with QoS. This is in addition to Steam...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    I have a AC86u. Should be plenty fast and works fine with normal torrent loads.

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    I looked at the classification of the Steam connections and it looks like it was getting categorized appropriately. What I did notice however is comparatively Steam seems to open and close a ton of connections while it's downloading. Basically it looks like it functions a lot like a torrent...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.2.5 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Seems to be some sort of weird bug with QoS and Steam. For some reason, even when functioning well under cap it causes all sorts of latency issues and throttling among other programs while downloading. It doesn't do this with any other downloads or uploads. I have to manually set steam to 50%...

    Beta Asuswrt-Merlin 386.1 Beta is now available

    Suggestion, could DSCP support be added? I know Merlin is more of supplemental material to the base code, rather then new features, but it would be fantastic to get DSCP support on the router and tagging added to the existing QoS support.

    Limitations of Asus Adaptive QoS

    Interesting topic here and hypothetical discussion. From what I understand Adaptive QoS uses part of the Broadcom chip that's essentially just a 'black box'. I've noticed seemingly weird performance with my router, I have a decent number of devices connected to it and whenever I setup custom...

    Thank you! Modern Warfare QoS Optimization?

    The adaptive QoS is what I would classify as something that 'mostly work's. You have to set the 'other' category just as high as the gaming category as a lot of gaming traffic ends up in it. I've also noticed as developers start to use encryption sometimes gaming connections end up classified as...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.0 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    There is Cake for newer Asus routers. I'm still using this over Cake particularly because Cake is fair and I don't want fair, I want a hierarchy of bandwidth, specifically priority. As such I want gaming devices/traffic to always take priority over everything else and slot in VOIP above that...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.0 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Interesting behavior, not sure what caused it, after updating from 1.0.0 to 1.0.1 I did a full reboot, Twitch started buffering every couple minutes and the only way to fix it was to refresh the page. Also ping times were all over the place in games. After about 10m or so it seemingly fixed...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.0 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Issue rather then question. Thought it might be something you could fix.
