      Nope upload is not even hitting 30kb.
      Like i said on DD WRT this is not happening.
      And yes i know 500/10 sucks but the best i have here i wish it had more upload for running VPN etc.

              Nope i just ran again while downloading torrents go this message:
              "Failed to get servers available. Something may be blocking requests error:23
              The browser failed to fetch the list of available servers. Either your connection went offline or there is a proxy or other browser extension blocking the test. If this error occurs after a successful test then there is probably a temporary resource exhaustion in the browser, OS or router."

              when i was able to run it 11 connections failed and 6 successful.

              Ill try the codelq and report result with it.

                I think doing a codelq scheduler and 520Mb in Traffic Shaper on the WAN improved a lot although not perfect but much better while downloading.
                Buffer bloat was A with codelq.

                  Do several tests with an "up queue" (limited at 10Mbit ?) - start using values like

                  d7476166-8148-455d-a044-2ca3fa987e3f-image.png

                  and also a little bit above and beneath.

                    i did 9500 on the upload and now its working with much smaller delay.
                    Buffer bloat is now A++ while downloading torrents.

                    I used this youtube video to set it up.

                      Nice. Did it help with connectivity whilst torrenting?

                        I started learning now about traffic shaping to see if i can do more to improve
                        performance and just to learn about it for fun :)
