Hi peepsnet
With your changes the first test is ok, but if I try to repeat it ... strange error:

That error is from a "real" speed test running at the same time!!! In my experience
 
Yes, It is possible, but How I can synchronize all ?

Thank for your support
 
update here: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/a...idth-using-spdmerlin.63067/page-4#post-566747

OK OK OK OK.... I wasn't understanding this whole part of the code:
Code:
while read -r line;
    do
        class=$( echo ${line} | sed -n -e 's/.*class htb 1://p' | cut -d' ' -f1 )
        prio=$( echo ${class} | cut -c 2 )

        prevRate=$( echo ${line} | awk -F"rate |Kbit" '{print $2}' )
        prevCeil=$( echo ${line} | awk -F"ceil |Kbit" '{print $3}' )

        Burst=$( echo ${line} | sed -n -e 's/.* burst \([a-zA-Z0-9]*\).*/\1/p' )
        Cburst=$( echo ${line} | sed -n -e 's/.*cburst \([a-zA-Z0-9]*\).*/\1/p' )

        Rate=$(echo "$prevRate*$dscale_factor" | bc -l)
        Ceil=$(echo "$prevCeil*$dscale_factor" | bc -l)

            printf "%2.0f                 %7.1f         %7.1f           %7.1f         %7.1f\n" $class $prevRate $Rate $prevCeil $Ceil
 
            #Debug
            #echo -e "$line\n class=$class\n prio=$prio\n Rate=$Rate\n Ceil=$Ceil\n Burst=$Burst\n Cburst=$Cburst\n"

            #echo -e "tc class change dev br0 parent 1:1 classid 1:${class} htb ${PARMS}prio ${prio} rate ${Rate}Kbit ceil ${Ceil}Kbit burst ${Burst} cburst ${Cburst}"
            if [ "$test_mode" -eq "0" ]; then
            Rate=$(echo $Rate | cut -d. -f1)
            Ceil=$(echo $Ceil | cut -d. -f1)
     
            tc class change dev br0 parent 1:1 classid 1:${class} htb ${PARMS}prio ${prio} rate ${Rate}Kbit ceil ${Ceil}Kbit burst ${Burst} cburst ${Cburst}
     
             fi

    done

turns out I was missing the next lines

Code:
 <<EOF
                $( tc class show dev br0 | grep "parent 1:1 " )
EOF

Now I see it is looking through the lines returned from:
Code:
tc class show dev br0 | grep "parent 1:1 "

With this I now know where the problem is.

The TC command tries to be helpful and gives you the "best" units for each value!! Since my values were > 999Mbps it was nice enough to up it to Mbps from Kbps
Check out the Units section on this website:https://linux.die.net/man/8/tc


UPDATE:

More testing:
Setting the both Bandwidth to 978 returned this:

I cannot tell where the Kbit/Mbit/Gbit flip happens. Seems to be random almost.
also
It seems Gbit is a value usable...
So it will have to check for Kbit/Mbit/Gbit
as a unit to calculate the values correctly

I hope I have a solution for @squidbilly

This is what I came up with:
Replacing the lines
Code:
       prevRate=$( echo ${line} | awk -F"rate |Kbit" '{print $2}' )
        prevCeil=$( echo ${line} | awk -F"ceil |Kbit" '{print $3}' )

With
Code:
# Using or K or M or G bit. That works for bit/Kbit/Mbit/Gbit
    prevRate=$( echo ${line} | awk -F"rate |K?M?G?bit" '{print $2}' )
    prevCeil=$( echo ${line} | awk -F"ceil |K?M?G?bit" '{print $3}' )

#get the 11th field
    rateUnit=$( echo ${line} | cut -d' ' -f11)

#and pull out all the numbers so all that is left is the letters. That works for bit/Kbit/Mbit/Gbit
    rateUnit=${rateUnit//[0-9]/}

    ceilUnit=$( echo ${line} | cut -d' ' -f15)
    ceilUnit=${ceilUnit//[0-9]/}
 
 
  
        if [ "$rateUnit" = "bit" ]; then
            prevRate=$( echo "$prevRate*0.001" | bc -l)
        fi
        if [ "$rateUnit" = "Mbit" ]; then
            prevRate=$( echo "$prevRate*1000" | bc -l)
        fi
        if [ "$rateUnit" = "Gbit" ]; then
            prevRate=$( echo "$prevRate*1000000" | bc -l)
        fi
      
        if [ "$ceilUnit" = "bit" ]; then
            prevCeil=$( echo "$prevCeil*0.001" | bc -l)
        fi
        if [ "$ceilUnit" = "Mbit" ]; then
            prevCeil=$( echo "$prevCeil*1000" | bc -l)
        fi
        if [ "$ceilUnit" = "Gbit" ]; then
            prevCeil=$( echo "$prevCeil*1000000" | bc -l)
        fi

This is in both the upload and download sections of the code.

There is probable a prettier way to do it but that is what I got to make it work.
I am not 100% on the math.

I am assuming your vaules want to be in Kbit
If bit is found then multiply the found valueof prevRate and prevCeil by 0.001
If Mbit is found then multiply the found valueof prevRate and prevCeil by 1,000
If Gbit is found then multiply the found value of prevRate and prevCeil by 1,000,000

Thanks for the changes peepsnet. Merged into v1.5

nice script, but I am having a hard time grasping the concept, as speed testing on the router does not equal same measures of speed testing from a client or am i doing something wrong?
 
Hi, I installed 1.5 and now I get even more errors, unfortunately. It seems that the script expexts the files
/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Downloaddaily_VPNC0.htm
and
'/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Uploaddaily_VPNC0.htm
to be existing. I don't know how to create them (they are not present on my RT-AC88U router)?
Use_VPN -> I didn't change initial config (so parameter is set to '0').

This makes me nervous:
" Something is different about this copy of AutoBW. Just letting you know. :)"
What is wrong?

Error messages:
Code:
 /jffs/scripts/AutoBW
[: Use_VPN: bad number

 AutoUpdate is enabled. Checking for update ...
 Something is different about this copy of AutoBW. Just letting you know. :)
 Based on versioning alone, you have the latest version: v1.5

Hi, I installed 1.5 and now I get even more errors, unfortunately. It seems that the script expexts the files
/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Downloaddaily_VPNC0.htm
and
'/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Uploaddaily_VPNC0.htm
to be existing. I don't know how to create them (they are not present on my RT-AC88U router)?
Use_VPN -> I didn't change initial config (so parameter is set to '0').

This makes me nervous:
" Something is different about this copy of AutoBW. Just letting you know. :)"
What is wrong?

Error messages:
Code:
 /jffs/scripts/AutoBW
[: Use_VPN: bad number

 AutoUpdate is enabled. Checking for update ...
 Something is different about this copy of AutoBW. Just letting you know. :)
 Based on versioning alone, you have the latest version: v1.5

My bad. I committed that part of the code, and I just pushed a derp fixing commit
https://github.com/squidbillyms/AutoBW/pull/6
For now, while the creator doesn't accept the pull request, do
Code:
nano /jffs/scripts/AutoBW
and change the line
Code:
Use_VPN=0
to
Code:
#Use_VPN=0

Regarding the "something is different...", doesn't matter. Autoupdate is off by default (maintainer wants that way), and as you've changed the autoupdate to ON, the md5 hashes are different between yours and the GitHub version, so that message is presented.
No problem

Still major issues with syntax errors after commenting that line out
 
Still major issues with syntax errors after commenting that line out
Same for me. Still syntax errors.
To solve the VPN-problem as a "quick-fix", I modified the following lines as follows (as I have no VPN; the if-clause seems to be wrong (I'd recommend to check for NULL e.g. by if [-z Use_VPN]; then" insteand of check for value "0" (I am not familiar with bash code)):
Code:
#if [ Use_VPN -eq 0 ]; then
  upload_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Uploaddaily_WAN.htm"
  download_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Downloaddaily_WAN.htm"
#else
#  upload_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Uploaddaily_VPNC$Use_VPN.htm"
#  download_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Downloaddaily_VPNC$Use_VPN.htm"
#fi

Now everything works fine (no more standard_in / syntax errors).

Ok, did some additonal testing and this works for me. Anyone using a VPN-config should try it, too, to verify it works with VPN as well.
Code:
#Location of upload/download stats
if [ -z "$Use_VPN" ]; then
  upload_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Uploaddaily_WAN.htm"
  download_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Downloaddaily_WAN.htm"
else
  upload_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Uploaddaily_VPNC$Use_VPN.htm"
  download_stats="/jffs/addons/spdmerlin.d/csv/Downloaddaily_VPNC$Use_VPN.htm"
