So the complete physical setup is:

Linux laptop <cable> WRT1200AC <cable> TP-Link TL-SG3424 L2 switch <cable> <macbook pro thunderbolt port>

This means there are multiple places buffering can occur, that doesn't 
have fq_codel.

I can't tell what switch chip is being used, it's not on 
http://techinfodepot.info/wiki/Linksys_WRT1200AC and I don't know where to 
look to find it. In /etc/config/network there is just br-lan and eth0 and 
eth1.
