    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...

    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/master/setup.sh chmod +x ./setup.sh ./setup.sh And then edit the config...

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

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

    cake-autorate: adding support for Asus Merlin

    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...

    Solved RT-AX86U Pro log repeats "WAN_Connection: WAN was restored" while red light keeps on and no Internet connection?

    I really think that you should rule out that the issue isn't the same one addressed by: https://github.com/lynxthecat/maintain-wan-lease The situation for which I wrote the script seems very similar - at exactly every 48 hours my modem would drop the ethernet link momentarily to trigger a...

    WAN Disconnections ASUS RT-AX86U Pro

    @SteevieWeevie I developed this: https://github.com/lynxthecat/maintain-wan-lease to maintain connection when connected with Huawei B818-263 in bridge mode.

    @Rici did you try the solution I developed and linked above?

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    @Yakumo - do you have a variable rate connection? It's only worth using cake-autorate for variable connections like LTE or Starlink. For fixed bandwidth connections it will typically not provide benefit and configured wrongly would only hurt latency (save only perhaps for providing diagnostics...

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    It would certainly be possible, but I don't understand Asus Merlin well enough anymore to know how.

    Solved RT-AX86U Pro log repeats "WAN_Connection: WAN was restored" while red light keeps on and no Internet connection?

    I wonder if the problem relates to the same problem that I addressed with this solution: https://github.com/lynxthecat/maintain-wan-lease

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    @rlj2 just updated his GitHub fork of cake-autorate here: https://github.com/LiveWire1968/Asus-cake-autorate This should help Asus Merlin users who want to use cake on connections with a variable bandwidth.

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    Incorrect, 2) can actually be circumvented anyway in Asus Merlin by modifying how and where cake is applied using something like the approach I set out here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/qos-script-for-vpn.74175/ Where there is a will, there is a way. But I am going to bow out of this now.

    CakeQOS CakeQoS-Merlin v2.1.1

    The following issues are orthogonal and should not be conflated: 1) your connection with your ISP giving rise to spurious latency spikes - this needs fixing by your ISP and cake or Asus Merlin has nothing to do with this; and 2) cake differentiating between individual, WireGuard-encrypted...
