Hello, I had a problem with gaming when my family were watching Netflix and what not as my ping would be unplayable. I found out about bufferbloat and SQM basically a week ago, bought a new router in Archer C7, installed openwrt and configured SQM.
Although it did eliminate alot of my bufferbloat and I get a grade of A on dslreports, compared to B from before, I still experience ping spikes once at least every 30 seconds. Also, when I click a Netflix show, ping would spike to around 100 for a second, which is not good for my gaming experience.
I'm based in Australia and use "Hybrid Fibre Coaxial" for my internet supply, with max speed of 50mbps and around 10-15 upload. Wireless download speed to my room is around 30mbps. I've tried configuring bandwidth from 40000 to 10000 and doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Thing is, when I connect on ethernet, there would be no ping spike when I load a netflix show. I'm extremely frustrated and would extremely appreciate any help as I am a total newbie in this world. I'll provide more info if required.
