Without extensive testing I have no faith that the current aqm implementation in cake is actually working. In the case of inbound traffic, managed at the cpe rather than at the isp, fq alone does not manage to reduce queue length. As for the actual characeristics of microsofts new distribution system, I have heard many reports of it slamming networks, but have no traces to work from. A suggestion to get some would be to put a freshly installed windows box on the network and capture all that happens. > Kevin > >> >> On 7/16/16 11:35 AM, Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant wrote: >>> Hi guys, >>> >>> Encountering some behaviour that I don't understand.
