for some reason I am not getting any ietf mailing list mail. too many useful links in the last one? :/ How bad is your dslreports test (send link privately if you like) For openwrt: you need to install luci-app-sqm on openwrt for a gui and the related kernel modules. You need to do a bit of testing. opkg update opkg install luci-ssl luci-app-sqm # I pull in the full ssl gui as well. see configuration guide: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/traffic-shaping/sqm as for autoconf, well, if ISPs shared their actual up/down rates and encapsulations with their users with a standard message (there is one appearing for pppoe), it would be a better world. Those ISPs optimizing their networks dynamically should also be providing a regular update to their users over a std api, IMHO.
