[Cake] Ubiquity (Unifi ) Smart Queues

Well my NIC has 4 queues as far as I can tell, so it could likely work, but as you say it’s like killing a mosquito with a gatling gun.

Those graphs are sweet though, and it’s been in my backlog for awhile to do something with Grafana to get something similar, like this one from a few years ago you’ve seen too: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/sqm-reporting/59960/96
