    Skynet What are some good current block lists? - Skynet

    Using this works but Netflix goes into buffering cycle every couple of minutes and thumbnails whilst rewinding an episode don't work removing it everything comes back to normal I'll try the gaming version see if that helps, thanks for these Update: The gaming list does the same thing sadly

    CAKEQOS/FLEXQOS Advise/Guidance/Best Practice

    As long as we're cool 😎 I'll wait to see what the others say. I'm relatively new when diving into the 'nitty gritty' so I could have it completely wrong but I've always taking it the options in QoS as dumbing it down for the modem (HG612 on my setup) So giving the QoS on the router the correct...

    CAKEQOS/FLEXQOS Advise/Guidance/Best Practice

    I read about taking a percentage of 10% - 15% of your DL & UL speeds but that's based on comments I've seen around also I seen your comments based on hijacking the thread and I apologise if that was aimed or included myself I'm with BT which I assume is pretty much the same connection so...

    CAKEQOS/FLEXQOS Advise/Guidance/Best Practice

    That seems fair; Real usage it's performing well and I'm loving not being bombarded with advertising now due to AdGuard but like you said seems I'm chasing ghosts because for the life of me I'm never getting that A+ no matter how I've tweaked it. Seems counterproductive but I'll hold on to see...

    CAKEQOS/FLEXQOS Advise/Guidance/Best Practice

    Given the options you've given me; Score. but kind of falls into a pride thing too because I've noticed multiple posts with pretty much the same connection as mine getting A+ whilst I've wasted so much time on it with the best score being A and if I can rule out the issue being my fault I'll be...

    CAKEQOS/FLEXQOS Advise/Guidance/Best Practice

    I'm aware every connection has different variables but can I get a screenshot of the settings you used for Cake? I'm with BT with an 80/20 rough split and I'm very lucky to get an "A" rating? Usually falls at a B rating sadly, thanks in advance.

    Proper PPPoE Setup on Merlin?

    Yeah I've got a working connection, with it being in the IPTV section it was more curiosity than anything; I'm trying to set my connection up to rock solid and efficient as possible ☺️

    Proper PPPoE Setup on Merlin?

    Hey RMerlin what does this do exactly? I've got a working connection which is PPPoE bridged from a HG612 I believe BT uses VLAN 101 is it worthwhile for myself to fill this in also? Sorry AnotherEngineer for piggybacking your thread! :)

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    Yeah I've read that but don't believe it's made any difference off or on sadly. I'm getting an A rating every 1/5 times roughly but usually falls to a B rating this isn't the image I got an A but it's the Download part where I can go from 29ms to all the way to 41ms and whatever I do I can't...

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    I read about 90% but I'll drop it to 80%; what about the rest? I've noticed a was following settings which was a modem router combination so I assume what I've done previously is possibly incorrect and something about adding +4 due to "VLAN tagging" but I'm completely confused 🤔 Edit: I...

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    Sorry, I've written this rather quickly. I'm trying to reduce my bufferbloat as much as possible and I've did a test and I've ended up with a B rating I can't post any images at the moment but pointers would be ideal Thanks

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    I'm not sure if I'm meant to make a new thread but I'll sure find out shortly which I welcome, how else am I going to learn right? I'm using a RT-AX58U attached to a HG612 2B VDSL Modem with a DL speed of roughly 74mbps and a UL of 18mbp from BT within the UK. I've checked around and but my...

    Cake and WAN packet overhead (VDSL2 PPPoE PTM UK)

    Bumping an old one and sorry I'm no help. Did you manage to figure out the best settings? I'm in the exact same predicament 😅 tia

    Channel and Width not following settings

    Hey folks, I've downgraded and followed a clean slate approach but it seems to be an unexpected feature I'll post it on GitHub when I get a second.

    Channel and Width not following settings

    Seems like somebody had an issue like mine "AX82U v2 Control Channel Issue #509" at the backend of last year on a different router but nothing else after this which may be pointing to a me issue; so I'll follow through with the guidance posted above before I put anything on GitHub. Thanks again...
