I'm confused, was cake on on the upload? The whole "upload under load
+0" thing I am finding a bit worrisome,
certainly at higher rates with fq on it's going to be close to 0, but
in actually finding one ONT with a mere 5ms
buffer (so far), I am fearing that a solution entering the field is
really short buffers.

Could you take a packet capture of a test without cake?

Ouch. And your uplink went to heck, also. The other worrisome thing
has been powersave and interacting with the
request/grant processes badly.
