It is 100% possible to fix excessive downstream buffering from some misconfigured device with a shaper on the download *on the CPE or home router*. I have been doing that for 15 years. So has everyone that uses nearly any of the shapers that are available for Linux, at least. http://burntchrome.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html doing it yourself, right, requires a good measurement, and you lose just a little bit of single-flow bandwidth - typically 5% - but you get it all back with faster tcp ramp up times, huge improvements in dns lookups, voip, gaming, and other traffic. it generally works way better than policers do. > > Jack -- Dave Täht Let's make wifi fast, less jittery and reliable again! https://plus.google.com/u/0/107942175615993706558/posts/TVX3o84jjmb
