I have purchased a WRT3200ACM, just so I can have awesome connectivity (with absolute minimum bufferbloat possible) with multiple devices here at home.
I am an FPS online-gaming enthusiast. I share my internet with roughly 5-8 devices, with a total of 3 actual users. My two parents and me. They both stream content on either facebook or youtube or both.
MY ISP package gives me roughly 115 MB/s download and 5.8 MB/s upload, it is an IPv4 cable connection, no IPv6 support on the modem itself.
I looked up another thread after searching for VLAN to help me figure out how to configure VLANs with two "CPU" things as they are in the WRT3200ACM Switch tab, because the tutorial videos I found only had one CPU thing (eth0), whereas I have eth0 and eth1.
My question is that is there any way that I can, without my internet modem providing any ipv6 support, make it so I can separate the wifi traffic (lan) and my wired connection traffic (lan), and give bandwidth quotas to each separately, but also solving the bufferbloat problem so that I don't get weird ping spikes and hit-registry issues? Otherwise I can only game from like 11:30 pm to 5:30 am. Which sounds rather ridiculous.
I think with luCl-SQM installed and "sqm-scripts-extra 2016-06-08-1" installed, I should be able to do "tripple LAN" type of manuever in the SQM settings page, with each of the separated lan''s (I think they'd be called VLANs rather?). (One for my ethernet br-lan, and one for all the wifi called br-wifi). And then somehow either separate the incoming WAN (from internet cable modem) connection into two, so that I can use the piece_of_cake with cake disc for bufferfloat for both of the br-lan and br-wifi, or if it's not possible to virtually separate the WAN (or WLAN) into two, if i can just separate my lan devices into two different categories and use the sqm-scripts-extra "triple layer LAN" thing. But that also has a note at the end saying (NOTE: Shaping on a LAN interface only affects machines connected via that LAN interface, so typically WIFI/WLAN traffic will not be shaped!) Which scares me because I also need this to work for the Wifi traffic.
I really do apologize for my ranting style of explaining things, but I am stressed out over this as it's been a few weeks after I've purchased the WRT3200acm and I have had no actual gain in purchasing this expensive device in doing what I needed it to do. I also have an old (almost non-working Netgear R6220 router), I did find some google results for matching that router in the LEDE portion of linux based firmwares for routers, so I could also use that, but then how can I chop the WAN's ethernet cord into two outlets? Sorry if this sounded ridiculously novice and newbie, but I am trying.
