Solved couple of days later… Both managed switches set like this…

(I’ve checked various forum posts and Asus web sites to no avail…) I’m trying to create a network topology (see picture below) with an AX11000 Pro router and managed switches (two TP-Link SG108E). I’ve a 802.1Q VLAN (created a VLAN_10 profile in the router) for untrusted—mostly IoT—devices to...

You don't understand what I'm saying. I need low latency for playing music online live with 3-4 others. I can afford at most 30ms of total latency from my [microphone -> mixer -> computer -> router -> cable modem] -> rest of the world. I have had to do many experiments and testing gear to get...

OK, let me start with the Ubiquiti Edge router and if it's better than the current GT-AX11000. Shame; it's been a really nice workhorse.

I was doing a bit of research on building an OPNsense machine over the weekend. The x86 hardware doesn't have hardware CTF etc, but still will be better than an Ubiquiti at 800M-1G speeds? My main concern is minimizing latency for the bit I can control: my machine, gear and the router. Thanks...

The screenshot above from a Ubiquiti, but which one are you using? I wish I could find hardware-accelerated QoS (without getting enterprise hardware); even the edge router 4 maxes out speed at around 350Mbps for hw QoS (I can't remember where I read that now).

What makes you say that? I thought I had tested that it was limiting another device…

No.

Yeah I've got those...

No. When I do a speed test on my machine with bandwidth limiter on, I easily get 800Mbps to 1Gbps. If I do it with cake I get 300 This is all with a wired connection of course.

10ms of latency odds HUGE for me since I can’t really afford >30ms to the server. I have computer/gear/router latency down to 14ms. I can’t make it worse.

Hmm. I know it said I should do this, but I can't remember now. Crap. If all else fails I could try that for real (and write it down) and try again.

I've thought about getting a prosumer model but they have their own issues (I don't feel like spending hours on command line settings). I've retired from my 25 years of working on command line and don't want to go back. Also I'd have to find one that supports exactly my use model. But...

I'm getting 1.5Gbps for $66 (incl taxes). Sorry.

Why do I use bandwidth limiter? Because Cake limits the bandwidth to ~350Mbps (and I get gigabit speeds due to a screwup at Xfinity!). And I do certain things that require very low latency (not gaming) and I don't want other devices to start some massive download that'll blow up the router...
