	This is my min gripe with accelerators and off-load features, typically they side-step the linux kernel network stack and offer far less features than that stack (this is how they speed up things). IMHO these are crutches and at least up to 1Gbps links reasonable priced x86/x64 hardware can do routing with all bells and whistles (heck mvebu plattforms also come close).

	By default OpenWrt does not use hardware offloads (and IIRC it only supports hardware acceleration on mediatek SoCs) but defaults to fq_codel, so usage of OpenWrt should still be a strong indicator of fq_codel being used....

Best Regards
