to the fresh bits...
But which bits to run? I have the following routers:
1) a new Archer C7v2
2) The old standby WNDR3800's.
3) ubiquity nanostation.
Anyone care to recommend what bits I should run to be most helpful?
Thanks,
Jim Gettys

I have an Archer C7v2.
Toke's repository has the airtime fairness patch and a patch to enable
fq_codel on the ath10k for 5Ghz.
http://kau.toke.dk/git/lede/
Both the 2.4Ghz N and 2.4Ghz AC work very well.
I recommend installing cake. It's under kernel modules and network
support in the menuconfig. Since cake now has NAT integration. You can
use the dual flow isolation feature to give equal bandwidth to the
devices on your network.
Simply select cake as the qdisc and a sqm script that uses cake. Under
the "Queue Discipline" tab, enable a set of two checkboxes.
Under "Advanced option string to pass to the ingress queueing
disciplines," put in "dual-dsthost nat"
Under "Advanced option string to pass to the egress queueing
disciplines," put in "dual-srchost nat"
Because of the issues with WMM in the WiFi stack, I recommend using the
following custom iptables rules:
iptables -t mangle -A FORWARD -o br-lan -j DSCP --set-dscp-class be
iptables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -o br-lan -j DSCP --set-dscp-class be
ip6tables -t mangle -A FORWARD -o br-lan -j DSCP --set-dscp-class be
ip6tables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -o br-lan -j DSCP --set-dscp-class be
You still need WMM to get the full speeds on the newer WiFi modes.

5Ghz AC. I realized it right after I pressed the send button.

I have an Archer C7v2 as well, so I'm interested.
The Problem: Thus far, I have only indulged in installing/configuring pre-built binary images and packages. I have the sense that I would need to build the firmware myself to be able to incorporate Toke's patches.
1) Is this true? (that I would have to build the image to get Toke's patch?)
2) Does cake come along with Toke's patch?
3) Does anyone have a pre-built image for the Archer c7v2?
4) And if there's a way to get Toke's build without setting up the full build environment, then give me an outline of the process, and I'll write it up.
Thanks.
Rich

To get Toke's patches, you would need to have a custom LEDE image built.
Here is Toke's repository with the patches: https://kau.toke.dk/git/lede/
Cake is a kernel package that would need to be integrated into the
build. Images built from a newer git version than LEDE's official
releases are unable to install kernel modules from the package manager
due to a kernel version dependency.
If you would like me to build an image for you, just list the packages
you would like me to integrate. You can email me directly if you wish.
I can also add other useful components as well.
I have gotten the nDPI deep packet inspection engine working for LEDE.
I could include that if you would like. It works great for easily
marking applications like Skype, Netflix, and many other applications.
If anyone else would like an image built for them, just let me know.
