Kwee Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Seems like the only way I can get my Ping underload with best results is by placing the sliders really low, I get the best results when I move the sliders under 30%, Only issue with this is I'm not getting my full speeds and limiting everything to 200 download and 100 upload. Games and devices seem to be running solid even with these lower speeds but what's the point of having Fiber speeds if I can't get a stable connection at those speeds? PingPlotter results seem really stable when I use this config. I get no packetloss even when running 6 videos In HD and running a speed test at the sametime. When I run the test with sliders at 100% I notice packet loss right away. That shows me the QoS Is doing its job. Does DumaOS use any type of Smart Queue Management?

Kwee Posted July 7, 2021 Author Share Posted July 7, 2021 when I go over 30% I start getting spikes again under load Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 As you have a gigabit connection, it's less likely that you'll experience local congestion anyway as you have so much available to you. It makes sense that you see good results with the sliders so low as Connection Benchmark can then essentially create congestion, then control the network queue. Do you experience any Connection issues in game with QoS disabled? Kwee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwee Posted July 8, 2021 Author Share Posted July 8, 2021 No real issues when QoS is off when gaming Only thing I do notice with it off is I get crazy packet loss on Ping-plotter when flooding the line during a test, Right when I turn it back on and move the sliders to 50% I get no packet loss even with a speed test running on max and multiple HD videos running at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 8, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 8, 2021 I think probably the best bet here is you have a value that you know works really well and the only issue is you want more of your speeds - even though you don't necessarily need them as it works well so I'd suggest just setting Congestion Control to Auto Enable. That way when you're gaming absolutely nothing will affect you but when you're not you'll get the full power of your connection. If you're just watching videos then the packet loss won't affect you anyway - give it a try and see how it works out. Kwee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwee Posted July 9, 2021 Author Share Posted July 9, 2021 Waveform good for testing bufferbloat? https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=7c5ba88e-10ce-4933-9e90-9828c3146527 test 1 https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=c188e275-2acf-4368-b2a2-b19c797fc8bf test 2 https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=d7335d7b-86d9-44ac-9cc9-9b48bc106275 test 3 https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat?test-id=55e6ae9a-b1a1-44da-9ab9-e9a57a8a9ecf test 4 Getting good results on the test besides the spike on download that hit 237ms on test #1 and upload almost 300ms spikes on test #2 Test 3 & 4 had the worst spikes and was all over the place. one spike was over 4000ms on test 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Netduma Liam Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 What were your QoS settings when you tested this? What did you change in-between tests? Otherwise it's difficult to pinpoint what needs optimisation I'm afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 9, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 9, 2021 We haven't tested that specific site so it could be Traffic Prioritization is negatively affecting it - we found this to be the case on DSLReports. We usually recommend PingPlotter Kwee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwee Posted July 9, 2021 Author Share Posted July 9, 2021 what's the best way to run ping plotter for testing? Just ping google.com and flood the network? should I just be on the look out for spikes on the graph and packet loss? what hops should matter the most out of the 11?

Kwee Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 I just notice I'm receiving 100% Packet Loss when running 192.168.1.1 on Ping plotter. I'm using IP passthrough in DHCPS FIXED so maybe that's causing the issue? When I installed the router it did change my login to 10.0.0.1 and my WAN IP starts with a 23. instead of 192. I'm using AT&T BGW210-700 Modem with 1000 up and down that's connected to the network box in the house with the ONT in the garage. The house is using Cat5E cable if that matters when I ping the 23. wan IP I don't get 100% packet loss at all. Also getting 1-2 Packet loss in Blackops Coldwar Thanks for all the help.

Bert Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 If your router is located at 10.0.0.1 there won't be anything to ping at 192.168.1.1 Your WAN IP will never start with 192 unless you use DMZ instead of bridge mode. Both 10.x.x.x and 192.168.x.x are subnets that are 'reserved' for internal networks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwee Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 Will you guys introduce some type of SQM in the future? Seems like QoS is only good at managing upload buffer bloat and not download. Seems like SQM clears up all my issues with OpenWRT, It's just tough spending $400 on a router and getting poor results. I will say I really enjoy all the other features it's just the bufferbloat issue is not helping for a smooth internet experience.

We're always looking to improve QoS and the algorithms that power it so it's very possible! How do you currently have QoS configured? We'd be more than happy to assist in optimising it further if you're still not getting great results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 The issue with SQM is that the hardware simply isn't fast enough to do it at gigabit speed. I don't think there is any consumer platform available at the moment that will run SQM at 1 Gbit outside of a x86-64 router. Fot gigabit connections I usually turn it off anyway.

Can you provide the screenshots of PingPlotter and the results you got? Then we can determine what is happening. Is QoS not applying to your download?

Administrators Netduma Fraser Posted July 15, 2021 Administrators Share Posted July 15, 2021 If you do auto setup and choose manually, make the spikes at 10% and allow it to throttle to 30% what percentages does it recommend? If you then test with it do those spikes disappear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwee Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 The thing is when I set it to 100% I still get massive spikes under load on the connection test and other bufferbloat test. waveform showed a spike at 4000ms on download underload, that test always freaks out when I set my sliders maxed out but it shows good results when I lower the sliders on QoS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
