Bufferbloat on BRSK connection

[Shaolin Chicken]

Wohoo!, got an A+ rating on Waveform bufferbloat website, on the Flint 2.
I installed the luci-app-sqm and used cake.
Now to just fine tune it.

What was it before?

It was a D rating.

Thank you for the detailed reply @Rainmaker. I tested on Cloudfare on good a good rating for video streaming, Average for gaming and good for video chatting.
I don't do too much online mutiplayer gaming, so will not worry too much.
If I do notice a real problem, I will buy the Flint 2 as recommended.

Changed my mind and ordered a Flint 2 , now I don't have to think about bufferbloat again.

I did the same.
I contacted Zen Internet. If it was possible to get funny looks down a phone then I got them, so I bought a new router. Installing Cake on the router, and five minutes messing about determining the best bandwidth, and my latency is A+ rated now.

What firmware version are you all running?

I didn't even realise this was a thing that could be easily measured... Just done a test & I get a rank "F". Although I think a lot of that will be due to running via a wifi mesh at the moment due to not having installed any infrastructure in my house since I moved in a few weeks ago. I'll have to try connecting something via a cable & see how it changes.

I realised I have a VM running on my server I can run the test on - Result of a "C". Not perfect, but a lot better & probably something I'm happy enough with for now. I'm running a Mikrotik Hex as my router on an Openreach connection, so I might have to do some digging to see if there's any way to improve this with my current HW.
