Thanks everyone for all the good advice. I will summarize my responses to all your notes now, then I'll go away and run more tests. - Yes, I am using netperf 2.6.0 and netperf-wrapper from Toke's github repo. - The "sync rate" is the speed with which the DSL modem sends bits to/from my house. I

Rich, One thing that helped considerably on my my DSL link (21000/1200), was turning on the Link Layer Adaptation. With that, and efq_codel, I've been very happy with the (nearly non-existent) latency. Yeah, I lost a couple percent off the top, but the behavior is better. Although I was startin

How are you measuring the link speed? With SQM enabled, I have speedtest.net results far below the values at which the gateway syncs. IF the gateway syncs at 12000/1000, the speedtest figures are 9500/850 The performance I obtain with streaming video is very good, tweaking the extra settings

Do you have the latest (head) version of netperf and netperf-wrapper? some changes were made to both that give better UDP results. -Aaron On Mon, Feb 24, 2014 at 3:36 PM, Rich Brown wrote: > > CeroWrt 3.10.28-14 is doing a good job of keeping latency low. But... it > has two other effects: >

CeroWrt 3.10.28-14 is doing a good job of keeping latency low. But... it has two other effects: - I don't get the full "7 mbps down, 768 kbps up" as touted by my DSL provider (Fairpoint). In fact, CeroWrt struggles to get above 6.0/0.6 mbps. - When I adjust the SQM parameters to get close to t
