R7800 performance

[ACwifidude]

I don’t game so I’m not chasing after every milisecond - With gig download on WAN I haven’t really needed SQM, on the upload (Asymmetric cable 940/35 link) SQM is beneficial. . I usually run fq_codel / simplest on only the upload side.

The NSS builds are experimental. If you have basic linux skills, can compile firmware, and know how to rescue your r7800- you can give them a try (If not, I’d stick to a hynman build- see community builds, kong, or your own flavor). They unlock the two NSS 800mhz CPUs for hardware offloading :

@quarky I misunderstood your point. Please ignore this reply. Yes, if I connect a LAN device and let router running VPN server forward packets to VPN client which connects router from WAN, I see the low performance again. I will try configure the jumbo frame in the LAN device(maybe also need to enable jumbo frame in the switch of router) to see if I can get higher performance.
