Odds are that not using ingress mode will make Cake lose control of the
bottleneck (that is what happened when I tried running a quick test),
and so will mess up both latency and throughput as you hit the bloated
upstream link buffer...

So using cake through sqm-scripts in OpenWRT/LEDE for ingress shaping does not currently work very well then? I guess the sqm-scripts should be updated to actually use ingress mode at some point...
