[Cake] fq_codel on 3g network in Mauritius

[Loganaden Velvindron]

After going through:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-aqm-fq-codel-06

I think that I should remove the itarget and etarget, and set the
Interval rather to 500ms.



   The _interval_ parameter has the same semantics as CoDel and is used
   to ensure that the minimum sojourn time of packets in a queue used as
   an estimator by the CoDel control algorithm is a relatively up-to-
   date value.  That is, CoDel only reacts to delay experienced in the
   last epoch of length interval.  It SHOULD be set to be on the order
   of the worst-case RTT through the bottleneck to give end-points
   sufficient time to react.

   The default interval value is 100 ms.

The default interval value is not suited for my 3g connection where
the worse-case RTT is much higher.

Unfortunately, I have no real insight or advice to offer how to improve your situation (short f setting the shaper rates considerably lower).
