SQM QoS extra options?

Installing and Using OpenWrt

Hello all,
I hope your day is going well.
I was wondering if there are any extra options in SQM QoS, that could help me.
When I stream a live video, and game, my game suffers network lag.
Without the live stream, my SQM QoS works great. Please let me know if there are any other pckg's I can try.

Thanks,
-Jarod

Router: Archer C7
SQM settings: 50mbps down, 22 mbps up. Cake, piece of cake.

My guess is that you're hitting the CPU limit of the Archer C7 with complex QoS shaping and high bandwidth (for that device). The Archer C7s I'm familiar with were only able to shape around 150 Mbps "in the lab". See, for example, Comparative Throughput Testing Including NAT, SQM, WireGuard, and OpenVPN
