And let me know what I might do to take more useful data with DSLReports...
Ok, hosed that first one up pretty good. Let's see how badly I can do this time...
Taking it around the block... so far so good on my Archer C7... ;-)
Chickened out a bit, didn't try a sysupgrade, I had been running a
custom build from Noah and didn't know if that was going to be an issue.
Also didn't try to save settings, let it clean everything out.
Installed my most recent settings, that seemed to work. Someone let me
know if there could be version issues there I might not have noticed yet.I'm running on the settings Noah mentioned a while back, cake and piece
of cake and the below:
> 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"

> 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.

> NoahI'm a little uncertain of what parts of what are in what state of
working. Current setup is 65/6Mbit Cable Modem - C7 - variety of Win
PC's and other things. I have a couple of AC1200 usb adapters, a few
phones are AC as well, as well as a lot of N devices. Been trying to
keep up with what's working with which interface.I'm getting mostly decent numbers for bufferbloat on DSLreports. Only
have DSLreports as a test method now, so I'm not much good for decent data.
My PC to eth connection has next to nothing, and most of the time the
wifi looks very good with bloat below 30ms.I have been seeing an anomaly, though, in that I get a fast startup,
with very low latency, download speed in the 50's, then after 5-10 sec
the speed drops drastically to the 10's for a few seconds, then rises
back up to the 50's again. I was getting ready to write this up the
other night, then trying it again it was gone. Full, flat speed thru
the whole test, over many tries. Tonight, it's back again. This was
on Noah's build, as well as tonight's change to Toke's 11-18 C7 build.
Not sure what to make of it. Here's an example URL to DSLreports, if
that helps: http://www.dslreports.com/speedtest/6276874 It can do this on 2.4Ghz and on 5Ghz with the AC1200 dongle, believe it
did it on the N dongle, will try that shortly. Also, the game player
is home from work now... we'll see what his comments are...Jon
