[Cerowrt-devel] failing to find the "declared victory" in a current wifi router

[Dave Taht]

sqm with fq_codel is barely good to 60mbit on the wndr3800, we seem to
have cracked 100mbit with cake on that platform.

However netflix, even in HD, does not crack 18Mbit or so, and I would
suspect your glitches are elsewhere.
