    Static route vs manually assigned IP around DHCP list?

    That's a common misconception. Static IP address assignment via DHCP is the correct terminology. For Example...

    Static route vs manually assigned IP around DHCP list?

    What you are describing isn't a "static route". You are thinking of a statically assigned address which just means that a device has an IP address that doesn't change. You can either configure a static address on the device itself, or you can assign it a static address via DHCP, based on its...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.11 is now available for AC models

    Just to clarify on this one. I am still getting DDNS update messages every 30 minutes on the this 386.11 version. I had thought that this fix was to stop a DDNS refresh from happening every time there is a IPv6 bound6() event, but re-reading, was the fix there just to stop the DDNS update from...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.9 is now available for AC models

    IPv6 is enabled, though I am sceptical that this is the cause. The thing is, this log message says it is a "forced update" which implies that there was no IP change, and that it was simply pushing an update for the sake of keeping the server hearbeat alive. I have also not changed anything in my...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.9 is now available for AC models

    Since the upgrade, it looks like inadyn is forcing an IP update every 30 minutes instead of the configured period (20 days in my case). Using the "NoIP" service on the RT-AC86U. I note that inadyn received an update with this version too. The log doesn't show any other entries prior to each...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    You'd also be screwing up your Internet speeds every 30 minutes during the test while it is saturating your connection with test data. If your speed dips were occurring on a semi-reliable basis (eg. only slow during peak hours), you might be able to schedule less conservative limits to kick in...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    The problem with LTE is that the maximum bandwidth can change on a moment to moment basis, so a measurement that was taken an hour ago, is very unlikely to still be valid. To ensure that your cap is set to an appropriate level, that limit needs to be overly aggressive. An A on the bufferbloat...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    That seems to somewhat match the graph you posted earlier. The unfortunate news is that to get effective QoS, you are probably looking at setting your speed cap at 40-45Mbps or so.

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    If you are talking about the ac88u, then I wouldn't get that one. It is older and buggier than the ac86u. I don't know much about the ax86u vs the ax88u. If you are concerned about range, then you can always try meshing your routers. When you get the new one, set the old one up as a mesh...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Limiting the speed will improve your latency stability. If you keep the traffic throughput capped below the maximum link capacity, then any new time critical packets that arrive are able to squeak in without being queued up before being sent or received. And the other comment about hardware...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    Without replacing your router with something a bit more modern, or switching to alternative technologies like Starlink, then I'd say you would be best off simply switching to the bandwidth limiter QoS, and locking the setting for your UL/DL limits to something like 40-50Mbps. With the...

    FlexQoS FlexQoS 1.3.2 - Flexible QoS Enhancement Script for Adaptive QoS

    I'm not sure you quite understand how intrinsically this plugin is linked with Adaptive QoS. The script is specifically written to tweak the operation of Adaptive QoS, which works in a completely different way to Traditional QoS. To use the car analogy, what you are doing here is asking to add...

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.7 is now available for all models

    Ahh thanks for that, that's good info! I have been diving into my ISP's forums, and it looks like whatever the problem is that I am seeing (No IPv6 after reboot), other ISP clients are seeing it on different hardware too. Whatever my problem is, doesn't appear to be related to the router firmware.

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.7 is now available for all models

    Thanks for that explanation :) As for the terminology, I was just quoting back Kyo using their own term :).

    Release Asuswrt-Merlin 386.7 is now available for all models

    The 386.7_1 test build doesn't appear to have resolved my specific problem. I just installed, and checked and had no IPv6 address. Waited two minutes, and restarted the WAN, and received addresses from my ISP.
