Zippy Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 I would highly recommend people to experiment with Openwrt. There are many good features and imo if one wants to really battle buffer bloat that is where I would start. Its always good to have an open mind about other options. There is no one superior firmware. And what was good one day is already being improved the next. Zippy. N3CR0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEDE kept their forum page but the firmaware's name is OpenWRT. It's excactly the same thing. I've tested it extensively. I've also tested Gargoyle and DD-WRT. My opinion is (that for us gamers) DD-WRT is the king. Zippy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinel Posted November 30, 2019 Author Share Posted November 30, 2019 Thank you n3cro zippy sgt greco Sgt greco i was hoping you would join in on this topic As ive seen your name on these forums for a few years a when i was searching info on open wrt forums Im pretty sure i seen your name in there Does ddwrt have algorthyms like cake and fq codel As im pretty sure that if i download open wrt that version dosent have sqm As what i was reading the tp link wr841n only has 4mb of ram so its not enough space to run it But i new to this so im not sure Sgt-Greco 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has SFQ, codel and fq_codel. In OpenWRT, SQM is not embedded in the firmware once you install it. You have to manualy download it as an extra script from the OpenWRT's database. It's true that OpenWRT is now more resource demanding thus your machine will suffer. Also keep in mind that OpenWRT will not provide you (by default) throttling or priority per IP so you have to achieve it with custom comands, something very difficult unless you are good with linux and networking. I'm not, so I try to avoid it. Cake is more like a fair share of bandwidth to all devices. But as a gamer I assume you don't care about Bandwidth Fairness and Network Democracy but Strict Dictatorship 😊, right? It's me and all the other stuff. For all of the above reasons, I'd suggest DD-WRT. Light and easy. Here is an emulator if you want to play around. Best of luck N3CR0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt-Greco Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 Don't worry. Even if you bricked it I think the tftpd method will bring it back. I've done it many times. I suspect you installed the image without the luci interface (GUI). Probably your firmware is installed but you can't access it. Try to ping it and see if it responds. As I feel this is going to be a long thread, feel free to DM me with the procedure you followed. If it is OK with the rest of the community keep posting here.

kinel Posted December 1, 2019 Author Share Posted December 1, 2019 So far what i think is i downloaded the sqaush factory bin Witch was meant to be for my version v9 But it does say it might make the gui not load as far as i read it has luci in the image thats why it wont load the gui because router only has 4mb ram so its to big image Atm i ve downloaded putty im just learning how to use tha t is there any other telnet programe i can use that i can use that i can copy and paste with Because i cant with putty It seems im goona be tpying a load of code ide rather copy n paste it So far i typed root to get into roter in putty Then typed in ssh [email protected] Then i typed in opkg update Then i typed in opkg install luci But it fails here So im trying to find out wht to do next Cheers for the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt-Greco Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 You can paste any command in putty. You don't have to write it. Be very careful what you type. Linux is case sensitive. Also in your 25 minutes ago, kinel said: opkg upate ssh [email protected] commands there are two spaces in between words and wrong spelling. The IP is wrong too. It won't work.
