I took your advice and decided to just forget about it (mostly because the tools I need to dig deeper needed a restart). But this time I have entware and strace setup so the next time it happens I'll be able to collect some more info. Although now that I have a swap space, it might alter the...

I'm getting high CPU and memory usage suddenly. Syslogs are filled with: Aug 17 01:07:57 lldpd[497]: Cannot allocate memory Aug 17 01:07:57 lldpd[497]: not enough memory Aug 17 01:07:57 lldpd[497]: Cannot allocate memory Aug 17 01:07:57 lldpd[497]: not enough memory Aug 17 01:07:57 lldpd[497]...

Apologies for the incredibly late response. You can disable QoS and make sure hardware acceleration is enabled. If you insist on using QoS on this router, you can set it to maximum download bandwidth to 250 mbps in the QoS configuration and you wont get the spikes.

Yeah got to the bottom of it. If you're curious about this game accelerator mode, there's not much documentation regarding this mode in terms of what configuration is being applied but you essentially pick devices you want prioritized which I don't see any difference whether its on or off...

After a lot of investigation, I've found the issue I believe. I used PingPlotter to generate a graph and waited for the sudden high latency spikes and correlate it to what's happening on the router. Posting my investigation in case someone else has this issue. Using PingPlotter, I managed to...

Just QoS as mentioned in the original post both in 'game mode' and without. I use traditional QoS with SFQ (also tried fq_codel) with the bandwidth set to 85% of my ISP advertised speed (I usually get 940 mbps).

Reboot through the webui. Factory reset and then configuring the same settings results in the same issue. Spikes of delayed packets makes VoIP cut out and games borderline unplayable when jitter is so high.

I've been using the latest stable Merlin firmware on my AC3100. I keep getting severe latency every few seconds and have traced it to the router itself. The latency spikes make low latency tasks almost impossible. Its happening consistently every few seconds or so. I've tried with both QoS...

What I'm trying to do is set up a wireless repeater with a different SSID. I have an Asus RT-AC86U set up as a wireless repeater with a different SSID and it seems to work fine. What I would like to do is set it up such that devices that connect to the repeater SSID are assigned IP's on a...

The wifi seems to be working and other devices are connected. My Pixel phone will connect and work fine for a day and then refuse to connect at some point. The entry for the wifi will go into disabled state in Android due to no longer working. In the system logs I see this on repeat: Feb 3...

I tried it, I'm not getting the same response as you. I'll try doing another reboot: dig @192.168.2.1 txt debug.opendns.com ; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Ubuntu <<>> @192.168.2.1 txt debug.opendns.com ; (1 server found) ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status...

I tried using your script and everything seems to have installed fine but for whatever reason, DNS is not encrypted after rebooting: dig txt debug.opendns.com ; <<>> DiG 9.10.3-P4-Ubuntu <<>> txt debug.opendns.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status...

I have an old SMC router that's still 802.11b. Enabling WPA (router only supports TKIP mode), I get 1.12 mbps over wireless. WEP I got about 5 mbps. So I thought it was about time to get a new router. I don't care much for dual band and i don't want to pay a premium for something I'm probably...
