Unfortunately the switch is on the latest firmware version. Why can't I run the iptables before the ingress queue? Also when you refer to upstream direction, are you referring to the OpenWrt switches upload (the games consoles' download)?
In other words, if I flip the direction of traffic around the other way, the consoles' upload speed would be OpenWrt's downstream if that makes sense?
This is the OpenWrt forum with DSCP iptables marks I have been referring to > Creating DSCP markings with iptables?
