Following on from a
post a few months ago, my experiment to downgrade to BT Fibre 1 my line has been rock solid and remained on fast path. It appears the line just can't handle the error rates at 66mbps but is fine at 56mbps.
Anyways a knock on of that is that the household is struggling with multiple streams and gaming etc at same time. My limited understanding of it all is that bufferbloat is spiking latency when connection is being used heavily. In terms of actual throughout it should be fine (maybe 4 HD streams at one time during worst periods) but kids and I have noticed latency will increase 4 or 5 fold and packet loss.
So my long winded question is, I need a router to sit behind the smart hub 2 with good QoS (fq_codel / cake)? This one has popped up in my twitter feed (big brother really is listening):
https://netduma.com/By all accounts it is an OpenWRT derivative with their own software / skin over it. So what would people recommend? Ease of setup would help as I'm not an expert at all.
Thanks for anyone who read to the end! 😀
