    DSL-AC68U, need QoS configuration advice

    Friends, I have Asus DSL-AC68U device. I want to fix the bufferbloat values on this device. Merlin is installed on the device. QoS is not working as I want. "Cake" is recommended by everyone in SQM structures but there is no such option in my panel. Is there any other way to install a smart...

    Best Cake settings for 5G Home Internet

    What are the best Cake QOS settings (WAN packet overhead values) for 5G Home Internet (Verizon 5G or others)? Currently running a RT-AX58U with Merlin. I know 5G is unpredictable but if I put in manual bandwidth caps that are very conservative (50%-60%) what would be good WAN packet overhead...

    CAKE settings for "IP Passthrough" (not bridged)?

    Running my RT-AC86U with a BGW210-700 modem (ATT DSL). The modem does not offer a true bridged mode, but it does offer "IP Passthrough," which seems to do the same thing. My question is which of the CAKE "WAN Packet Overhead" and Mode (ATM/PTM/Normal) settings would apply here? On the modem...

    New to networking - does my router support CAKE?

    Hi, I'm new to this website. Basically about 18 months ago I bought an ASUS RT-AC66U B1. I did some basic research about Bufferbloat and latency, found this forum and decided to buy that as it was a budget router that with Merlin installed would have access to FQ_Codel. I thought this would...

    Cake - diffserv3 - DSCP - How badly are liars/outliers punished

    Dear Forum members, Cake relies among others on DSCP to assign packets to priority tins (Cake uses the "tin" word. I see those as priority queues.) To discourage DSCP "liars", some sort of trade-off is built-in to ensure that priority tins get some disadvantages together with the benefits. For...
