during my pi project a while back i was tinkering with the idea of having sqm on the upload but have hw offload on the download, is this even possible? i have async internet 1000/40 but the upload is 35 with burst to 40 and the latency sucks between 35 and 40, so i want to cap it at 30 instead and leave the download alone.
if not is there another way to mitigate issues with the upload?
Some options:
You can set SQM ingress bw to zero to disable control
Does your raspberry have real 2 gigabit interfaces allowing gigabit up gigabit down simultaneously? How does htop look when running speed tests?
im using the gl inet flint 2 (gll-mt6000) now, so i have 2x2.5 and 4x1
basically our house max concurrent speed is in the 600s, save for big game downloads which isnt alot around here, maybe once a week, but i work from home so my primary focus is eliminating latency, in a perfect world i get my wifi latency stable and low so i can actually use the wifi to wwork around my house without being tethered to the ethernet cord. so i am also looking into aqm on the wifi side of it
Disable all SQM and measure, post link to waveform result and indicate if fast.com or speed.cloudflare.com indicates much higer bw.
Repeat test with software offload.
