Model: Archer AX20   Archer AX1800  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.1.4 Build 20230219 rel.69802(4555)

Implementing SQM to help counter Bufferbloat (Google it, can't post links) when using P2P / connection heavy software.

 

When downloading via P2P software, if the amount connections go above 26 seeds (or there abouts) the entire router tanks *ALL* communications. This means Wireless, Wired, Internet and Intranet. This isn't an ISP issue as it affects the internal network. Same applies when uploading.

 

This can be tested by looking up Debian torrent downloads

 

root@fileshare:----# ping 192.168.1.201
PING 192.168.1.201 (192.168.1.201) 56(84) bytes of data.

When seeding:

root@fileshare:----# ping 192.168.1.201
PING 192.168.1.201 (192.168.1.201) 56(84) bytes of data.

Image attached. CPU and Memory (if it's accurate) doesn't seem to be a bottleneck

If it wasn't for the proprietary Broadcom chip, I'd have dd-wrt / OpenWRT on it be now.
