G'day, Just a small update on the Unifi security gateway stuff. They have a new range of devices which are a lot more powerful. ( https://store.ui.com/us/en/collections/cloud-gateway-ultra/products/ucg-ultra ) The good news is that the limits set in the GUI now match exactly the "rate" set in

Well my NIC has 4 queues as far as I can tell, so it could likely work, but as you say it’s like killing a mosquito with a gatling gun. Those graphs are sweet though, and it’s been in my backlog for awhile to do something with Grafana to get something similar, like this one from a few years

I probably could, but it seems *a bit* more complex than I need more my little home network? ;) Best Regards, Nils Andreas Svee > On Jan 9, 2024, at 18:07, dave seddon wrote: > > Nils - I guess you could run LibreQoS on N100? > > On Tue, Jan 9, 2024 at 8:57 AM Nils Andreas Svee via Cake >

Principal limitation for libreqos on a small box is has to have multiple hardware queues and support eBPF. Seriously folks, running libreqos at home is *serious overkill*, although I have to admit the traffic graphs are mesmerizing!!! One of our ISPs has been setting them to music:

Thanks to everyone for the comments. Wow Dave. Thanks for the links to the lawsuit. Fascinating. I didn't know about this. Since the original email, I actually downgraded from Spectrum cable 300 Mb/s to ? maybe it's 200 now ?, anyway it's $20 a month cheaper. And decreased the "smart queue"

It is so nice to see this list come to life again. I just wanted to point out that the inbound drop rate was merely .03% in the first email. Elsewhere we keep hearing of 1-2% drop rates being common, and I just aint seeing it in any of the larger scale data I have been getting from the libreqos

You’re unlikely to do any real harm though, but the warning is there cause you can potentially soft brick your router using it. I’ve run into that myself if I remember correctly, where after a firmware upgrade the kernel had slightly changed, so loading the sch_cake module caused it to panic.
