only if the bottleneck router that needs to do the queuing is directly adjacent to the endpoints. Yes, home routers commonly fit this definition, but since the usual case is a router/modem from the ISP with a wifi router plugged into it and the endpoints attached to the wifi router (wired or wireless), the ISP router/modem which has the actual bottleneck and should be doing the queuing isn't going to actually see the endpoint mac addresses.

But all of this hopefully does impede the implementation of the dual-flow-classifiying cake-mode; as even without those refinements the dual-mode should work well for IPv6 (assuming people do not game this by using excessive amounts of addresses per host) and non-NATed IPv4… >> >> Best Regards >> Sebastian >> >>> >>> - Jonathan Morton >>> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Cake mailing list >> Cake@lists.bufferbloat.net >> https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cake > > > > -- > Dave Täht > Do you want faster, better, wifi? https://www.patreon.com/dtaht > _______________________________________________ > Cake mailing list > Cake@lists.bufferbloat.net > https://lists.bufferbloat.net/listinfo/cake
