Powersave is often a problem. A device will go to sleep until there are more packets to transmit. This is a somewhat foolish behavior network-wise, in that - for example - a tcp syn then syn/ack packet outstanding needs all the boost it can get to get more packets in flight once the flow gets going...

Cake is some sort of voodoo magic! Uploads are faster, downloads are more consistent, latency is lower under load??

The counters will show the number of connections matched, not the number of packets.

Check your matching queues to see the packets that are being matched by your connection marking.

Hi, I've recently encountered issues getting IPv6 working with my ISP. On investigation, I believe this is due to "rapid commit" in DHCPv6. This packet capture shows the issue, captured by my router: https://naughtymonkeys.net/uploader/files/1/2018/DHCPv6%20Rapid%20Commit.png The initial D...

I've recently come to the conclusion that a Mikrotik bug in DHCPv6 related to "rapid commit", is the source of my IPv6 woes. Rapid commit is intended to accelerate IPv6 address configuration on the client. Rather than a 4 packet process before an IP is usable, it only takes 2. However Mikr...

Hi ewoodzy, I'm having the same issue on my home Mikrotik router, and based on the IPv6 address in your info we're on the same ISP: Telstra (2001:8000::/20). I've been posting on Whirlpool about this, so far without any luck: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=2767959 I assume you'r...
