Re: Found a way to break QOS?

This is an odd network. I have tried to reduce details for clarity. Here is a larger diagram (and no, this is still not everything). https://drive.google.com/open?id=1IlLqkCGfOfIa7xqapQWf_JB0oqDc7x87 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1JyqBgqDFPa7MaCprdP8nvEOo6sgwQQg5 I assumed that the principles of ...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

UPDATE: I made a discovery today that drastically affects how QOS operates, which I did not anticipate. IS this expected behavior? In most of my testing of QOS, I have used a combination of remote and local target streams. "remote" meaning across the DSL line. "local" meaning a l...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

Quick update. I had a chance to test again between using class percentages vs min BW on upload and there is still a significant difference. In fat I could not get anywhere near desired results with a minBW setting, but with just class percentages it works perfectly under all conditions. Min BW on do...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

The chart on the bandwidth usage screen matches what the actual throughput is, but the class BW readings and settings on the QOS screen do not seem to match. If you simply mean the load values are not always accurate on the QoS page, that's not very uncommon in my experience. Sometimes it shows 2x ...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

Another update. I started testing the upload QOS action itself and found an anomaly. The kbps settings on the upload QOS screen seems to be off somehow. In order to get 1.6mbps to pass upload, I must set the maxBW setting on the QOS screen to 2300kbps. The chart on the bandwidth usage screen matches...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

UPDATE: I tested further today. After a full day of working under all conditions with nothing but shared % of bandwidth, I re-activatred the min bw. By setting a min BW on the salchstr class, at a level equal to that of the max % at full bw, it broke. a full stream in any other class then kills tcp ...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

I've been watching this run all day and it worked flawlessly under all conditions. Ended up getting qos Max at 27000/1600. Interestingly, the CPU utilization also decreased noticably under full load. Maybe 10 to 20% . I'm happy enough at this point to try introducing min bw again tomorrow and see if...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

You're a genius! Making that change to "switch to dsl mode" worked like a charm! A quick tests now shows that QOS is rock solid up to about 27mbps download, even at 60% to 65% sirq. I tried with and without the special video class, and it performs as expected. 27mbps is the effective consi...

Re: Found a way to break QOS?

Sorry, more missing info... The 30mbps is 2 bonded 16mbps lines. The bonding is done at the ISP, and works well. At the DSL router I can achieve a very consistent 31 to 32mbps on a single download thread. And of course, the 2.2mbps download is the bonding of two 1.1mbps lines. https://drive.google.c...
