Shame they haven't been as interested in implementing CAKE in their firmware. We haven't reached fq_codel levels of activity for CAKE, but we've still got well over 500 replies to that thread. Personally after getting CAKE to work on those boxes, I have never looked back. It's just that good.

Last time I saw someone ask about getting CAKE implemented in the stock FW, UBNT-staff just sent them my way [1].
