I have always used "keep settings when upgrading" without issues so far.

Maybe it is solved
now I see more than a queue used by cake_mq, can you try to compile the next-r4.8.0.rss.mtk-test6.18?
Please enable testing kernel on make menuconfig. I didn't compile on 6.12.
So, the message is:
if you have a gbit wan, please compile with testing kernel and let me know how it work cake_mq.
THANKS TO ALL for testing

I would, but unfortunately I can’t. We should see what the other testers say about it
Can any one compile a verion on git? I have 1gbit fiber and can test 
I'll do it for kernel 6.12, please wait...

Kernel 6.18 is fine also

@pesa1234 Great work as always.
Testing your 6.18 branch on a Filogic device as a dump AP and seems stable at the moment.
There is tonnes of log spam though:
[7 abr 2026, 13:34:41 CEST] kern.info: [16444.005100] mtk_soc_eth 15100000.ethernet eth0: cake-mq: mode=dsa mac=0 sb=eth0 skb_q=5 txq=8 real=16 num=16 hash=0x39ac9352
Ok, thanks for feedback.
Are you using cake_mq?
No. Haven't configured anything.
Can any one post a prebuild 6.18 sysupgrade

Managed to compile this. Does this look ok.

Can you please try different value example 1000000 or 1200000 or 600000 and check download speed?
You can do it by luci or
echo 1000000 > /sys/kernel/debug/cake_mq/sync_time_ns
So, patch for tx queue seems ok, but download speed with cake_mq is still a mistery
Download speed on gigabit connection is great on 6.12 with cake. Multi queue seems to be working

So in 6.12 everything works fine, but in 6.18 the tests remove at least 200 MB, almost always bringing it down to around 400–500 MB. Did I understand that correctly?
Dear Pesa ( and / or any other OpenWRT Mavens ),
Hello and I appreciate all the excellent work and Builds which you are kind enough to selflessly provide for this community. I have one request of you - hopefully it is not too much of an imposition
Can you please post or message me .config and / or config.buildinfo / diffconfig file ( s )
which will allow me to build your 6.18 kernel firmware ? - Please - Thank You
I have tried multiple times to build 6.18 test - however I have had no success. Thank you again.
Peace and God Bless
Are you sure?
