Cake SQM and FPS Games



Hello everyone,

I bought a GL MT-6000 router and is my first OpenWRT product I ever use. I was able to upgrade to LuCI openwrt-23.05 branch (git-24.212.79335-cdbe903).

I did some SQM settings that I found on the forums but I'm not sure if I'm on the right direction in order to fully achieve the lowest latency possible while I game online.

my Internet speed is 500/120

Looks OK provided eth1 is your WAN. Have you tried testing for buffer bloat?

If you get an A+ here you are done.

Have you read:
