Add GRE to QoS (Workaround here)

I work a lot with pptp and noted that tcp 1723 doesn't really matter traffic-wise. I pretty much saturate my connection constantly, but need PPTP snappy or I'll go insane.

Adding GRE to the QOS transport menu did the trick. To do this: Go to the /www directory and edit
qos_edit_rule.sh
qos_upload.sh
qos_download.sh

Look for:

Code: Select all

 <option value="ICMP">ICMP</option>
and add

Code: Select all

<option value="GRE">GRE</option>
Immediately below it.

Then add the upload/download rule with only the transport specified.
Done.
Could we get this added to the Gargoyle releases?

So you tested this then and it worked? I have no access to GRE packets so if I add it the testing would depend on you.

Yup. GRE traffic shows up under the class I selected (fast).

I updated the repo to include this today. It will be included in the next release of Gargoyle.
