It creates a conflict when the child has a higher ceiling than the parent. It's not broken but it wasn't an ideal situation if you max out your bandwidth often/ever.

I suppose that would explain an issue I've been having with downloads being werid I'll check again tomorrow to see if removing the lines makes a difference

A secondary thing I noticed was very time I added the rule to the script and did an update check it would say athlete is an update available even if it's the same version, I'd have to say that's some amazing anti tamper mechanism.

I think it was a technique Adamm started where an update with no version change (i.e. hotfix) was detected by calculating the md5sum of the local and github files. If they don't match, but the versions are the same, then it must be a hotfix. So yes, any local user changes to the script or asp file would be detected as a hotfix available during an update check.

@Vexira i also still used/unsing the 90% rule from freshjr.

Rule:
DownCeil="$(expr ${DownCeil} \* 90 / 100)"
UpCeil="$(expr ${UpCeil} \* 90 / 100)"

So its not good to use this anymore ?

It appears fq_codel’s days might be numbered?
If I’m reading it right, it’s unable to run in the upcoming Asus firmware.

@dave14305 Noticed I was having some internet issues so I reboot router....Noticed this in syslog. Can provide whole log if needed. It may be nothing but was curious about it.

Did it eventually apply the rules correctly?

Let's cross that bridge when we get there. I'm glad I started experimenting with sfq, to see if it makes much of a difference under Adaptive QoS. I still think the overall impact on Adaptive QoS will be minimal. fq_codel will still be available for Traditional QoS, and that's where it would do the most good. The complex Adaptive QoS class structure makes the underlying leaf qdiscs less important than if you have a simpler Traditional QoS class structure of Highest, High, Medium, Low, Lowest.

I need an easy way to depict and annotate the hierarchy (besides resorting to a PowerPoint org chart

).

Just to be contrary, I too have fired up sfq. No apparent issues thus far.....

What are your iptables rules?
I wonder if I miss some useful ones.
Here are mine:

Also thinking about adding some for Stadia: UDP/TCP 44700 - 44899: Gaming.

dave14305 · Oct 15, 2020

Most of my rules are focused on Work from home traffic. I had to re-add the Zoom rule when I saw some Zoom traffic still being classified as Untracked. The CF Warp rule is to de-emphasize my kids' traffic when they hide their activities behind the 1.1.1.1 app (Gaming is 6th priority in my list above File Downloads and Game Transferring).

Since I'm also experimenting with my Raspberry Pi again with Pi-Hole, I am also enjoying the benefits of my new inverted filter. Pi-Hole generates a lot of connection noise in the connection list and I can put a !DNS in the filter to hide them all.

Thanks for info. How hard would it be to implement or if its even possible to do a dropdown with known preset rules (gaming, zoom, factime etc,) people can choose from?

I can probably mimic the Well-known applications menu on the Port Trigger page. I borrowed a lot of code from that page already.

Done on the develop branch. I have added the default built-in rules, Zoom and Skype/Teams to the dropdown list for now. For the Gaming Rule, it defaults to the Local IP address of the device logged into the router UI, so be sure to change it to the actual Gaming device IP or CIDR after it's in the table.

The UI is very busy and crowded so I'm open to ideas on how to simplify it. I would really like to figure out a smart way to consolidate the Tracked Connections table where connections with the same attributes except Local Port aren't duplicated. For example, if I have a Pi-Hole making 300 connections to 9.9.9.11 on 53/udp and all are labeled DNS, but only the random local port is different, only print that line once and display a connection count instead of listing each one individually. Need to learn how to detect duplicates in arrays, ignoring one field of the array (local port).

Too many lines!

Preset dropdown work better using Asus's implementation IMHO (much more intuitive to use). Here's an example that I recently implemented:

webui: re-implement QoS overhead as an inline dropdown menu · RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng@ffdab4b

This is more intuitive to indicate that this is a preset list and not an actual setting intended to stick.

Preset dropdown work better using Asus's implementation IMHO (much more intuitive to use). Here's an example that I recently implemented:

webui: re-implement QoS overhead as an inline dropdown menu · RMerl/asuswrt-merlin.ng@ffdab4b

This is more intuitive to indicate that this is a preset list and not an actual setting intended to stick.

I chose to use the Port Trigger code because I have to append the chosen value to an array used in tableApi. Or are you thinking I can put an arrow somewhere more convenient than adding a select menu? Since I use the tableApi CreatePanel, I don't have a lot of control over it (or so I think).

If you don't already have input fields (like the search fields currently available on the Classification page), then that new system isn't very useful indeed, and you will have to use regular select fields. I thought you were looking into having presets next to, for example, the Application input field.

I have a pull_arrow implemented in develop branch for the Local IP field, but your comment about Application input field gives me another idea how to filter the list by class priority level (0-7).

It turns out I can unintentionally filter the list by priority number due to a kludge I have for sorting by Application priority level. In my personal configuration, Work-From-Home is second priority (or 1 on a zero to 7 scale). If I enter '1>' in the Application field, I can get all Work-From-Home connections. If I add a pull_arrow dropdown to do the same with friendly names, it could be a useful feature. Just the unsensible '1>' would be confusing to look at.

Most of my rules are focused on Work from home traffic. I had to re-add the Zoom rule when I saw some Zoom traffic still being classified as Untracked. The CF Warp rule is to de-emphasize my kids' traffic when they hide their activities behind the 1.1.1.1 app (Gaming is 6th priority in my list above File Downloads and Game Transferring).

Since I'm also experimenting with my Raspberry Pi again with Pi-Hole, I am also enjoying the benefits of my new inverted filter. Pi-Hole generates a lot of connection noise in the connection list and I can put a !DNS in the filter to hide them all.

Thanks, Dave. This is very useful, especially for Zoom and Skype.
