For the last few months I've had problems with my Bt infinity 2 connection which used to be a very stable 70mbps/16mbps with minimal issues even though I've a busy household using it for gaming,streamin browsing the usual.
Then the speed began to drop with high ping spikes lots of latency while gaming buffering while streaming etc,to cut a long story short after many calls and a few engineer visits nothing has really been found to cause the issue apart from some interference on the line between the exchange and the cabinet.
So I decided to buy a router as I've read on different forums that it can help with your connection and improve speeds if your lucky and use things like qos etc
So I bought the Asus Dsl ac68u then discovered the modem in it isn't the best and not approved by Bt so i got the Draytek 130 to go with it.
I'll post the screenshots of how I've got it set up and could anyone be kind enough to check if I've got it set up in the best way possible please?
Also today I've had a visit from a Bt engineer again for a dlm reset and he changed the ports in the cabinet.
I also thought about the custom firmware that I see you can now get for the dsl ac68u,I'm especially interested in the qos script.
Can anyone advise how I go about installing it and scripts for a complete noob?
Could it be installed now or do I need to wait for the dlm to stabilise where it was reset?
I've enabled a setting under special requirement for isp which allows me to log into the modem set up pages on my browser,not sure If I should leave this enabled and if it will slow down speeds.
