Using a Linksys EA6350 v3 router with dl/ul speeds of 35/4,5 Mbps. I have followed the openwrt guide for SQM (only deviating in selecting eth1 interface, as that's where my wan ports seem to be) , setting speeds to 85% and the score increases from an F to a C or D. Tried several different values f…

The solution to my problems was buying a new router ¯_(ツ)_/¯ I think the ea6350 just couldn't handle the sqm algorithm. Went with the wrt1900ACS and consistently getting an A score on bufferbloat (95% of full speeds) and lag-free gaming.

Are you connected to wireless 2.4Ghz? Wireless 2.4Ghz is abit flaky.

It is a wired connection to my desktop, but 2.4 and 5.0 bands are broadcasting on the router, yes.

What about your friend streaming. What's the connection method? Maybe checkout this post [image] Optimized build for IPQ40xx devices Community Builds, Projects & Packages About this ROM This is a custom ROM for the EA6350 (the EA6350v3, to be more specific), …

Ah, yes. It's a roku on the 5G band. Looking into that post, thanks.

[image] snoopyglobal: I want to implement SQM because if my roommate streams anything while I'm gaming, I see severe lag spikes. have a look here with multiple clients on network you should enable the per-host isolation (cake + piece of cake) it shold help you a lot in this situation. To en…

Thanks for the suggestion. I added both of those lines in the sqm settings and will give it a spin tomorrow. If i'm understanding it correctly, this will divide the bandwidth fairly among active devices, regardless of the amount of streams?

yes exactly, if your roommate start a torrent client downloading like crazy or starts streaming and upload like crazy it will get same bandwidth as you watching a youtube video or gaming.. dual-srchost Flows are defined by the 5-tuple, and fairness is applied first over source addresses, then ov…

I think this has helped the most, still some odd lag at times, but not gamestopping like it used to be. I think the next thing to do with be flashing that optimized build linked above, but I want to test this more first.

[image] snoopyglobal: flashing that optimized build linked above i don't own this device so i don't know if it's something specific/bug/or else involved in this. [image] snoopyglobal: I want to test this more first you should post here (or in a new topic about sqm optimization with yo…
