    GT-AXE16000 and bufferbloat

    I currently have the GT-AXE11000 and the bufferbloat gets no better than a C rating. I was wondering if people who own the GT-AXE-16000 have better score than me? I am thinking of upgrading to the 16000. Test here: https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat I thought I read somewhere that...

    ASUS QOS does NOTHING! Help wanted [Rant]

    So I recently made a thread asking about to discuss QOS options with my RT-AC66U_B1. I've had it about 18 months, did only basic research on it and the person I purchased it from (eBay) already installed Merlin on it. Didn't use bufferbloat tests back then, tried Traditional QOS and Bandwidth...

    Hi everyone, Longtime lurker, first time poster lol. I had to ditch my Arris all-in-one gateway and get a Hitron HN2251 as my modem was no longer supported. Anyway, long story short, I picked up an AX86U to use as my router/wifi AP as the Spectrum router/wifi AP was too castrated for my...

    List of Smart Queue Management (SQM) routers

    Is there a list of consumer routers with Smart Queue Management (SQM) support with stock firmware? Anything with a Qualcomm chip with Streamboost support or based on a modern OpenWRT or a very modern Linux kernel should have SQM available by default, right? Unfortunately, identifying specific...

I've tried every combination of QoS settings and even with extremely conservative bandwidth limits (even as low as 40 Mbps!) none of them seem to do anything.
