CakeQOS-Merlin Build Status Shellcheck

Pre-requisites

  1. Currently supports ASUS HND models running ASUSWRT-Merlin firmware version 386.2 and above. Versions prior to 386.2 are supported on the legacy 386 branch or 384 branch. This script will automatically install the appropriate legacy version if your firmware does not support Cake natively.
  2. Not recommended for connection up/down of 250Mbps or higher. Note: Users with higher up/down connections have reported lower peaks but better stability and user experience overall and continue to use Cake.

Tips

  1. If you use connections like ADSL, VDSL, Docsis, learn about the overhead keyword at the tc-cake man page.
  2. Read and understand the different Priority Queue Parameters and Flow Isolation Parameters.
  3. Use 90-95% of your line speed as upload/download limits

Install Example

  1. For best results, uninstall the legacy CakeQOS-Merlin v1.0 script, then enable Cake in the router WebUI under Adaptive QoS / QoS (a reboot may be required).

  2. Run the installer:

    mkdir -p /jffs/addons/cake-qos && /usr/sbin/curl -s "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ttgapers/cakeqos-merlin/master/cake-qos.sh" -o "/jffs/addons/cake-qos/cake-qos" && chmod 755 /jffs/addons/cake-qos/cake-qos && sh /jffs/addons/cake-qos/cake-qos install
  3. Configure your preferred settings in the WebUI under Adaptive QoS / CakeQOS-Merlin.

  4. To check that CakeQOS-Merlin is running, check the Cake Current Status section of the WebUI, and/or do a bufferbloat test on DSLReports.
