[Cake] How to test Cake on TP-Link WDR3600

[Alec Robertson]

I’ve uploaded all the files to the router and rebooted and very oddly, “cake" doesn’t show up as a qdisc but “layer_cake.qos” and “piece_of_cake.qos” show up as Queue setup scripts.


Weird.

Please have a look and let me know what specific questions arise ;)

>> Attached you will find the most recent files for sqm-scripts, just move all the files in the archive to the corresponding locations on your router and the select cake as qdisc and piece_of_cake.qos as script. (You might need a more recent luck-app-sqm, but first try what happens if you try the new scripts). After using the GUI to properly configure your interface you can always run either:
