GNUton and ASUS DSL-AX82U

[UK Sentinel]

Looks like @GNUton may have fixed the Cake QoS issue with his latest DSL-AX82U beta

Unstable: 386.03_2-gnuton0_beta5

——–

GNUton’s Asus Merlin changelog:

Date: August 16, 2021
Release: 386.03_2-gnuton0_beta5

NOTE: closed down the Issue tracker on Github, as 90%
of it was people asking for technical support,
or failing to use the supplied submission form.

NOTE: From now on DSL-AC68U trx images without DSL modem
firmware will be provided at each release.
Reason: Some ISPs may require older DSL modem fw.

CHANGED: Re-disabled jitterentropy-rngd on non-HND
models. It kept using CPU time every two
seconds and had a very marginal impact on
the entropy pool (which it never could push
above the target threshold of 1024).

CHANGED: Moved the “Redirect Internet traffic” setting on
the OpenVPN Client page to the Network Settings
section to increase its visibility, as too many
users are forgetting to configure it.

CHANGED: Display “Internet traffic not redirected” instead
of “Public IP Unknown” on the OpenVPN Client
status display when Redirect Internet traffic
is set to “No”.

FIXED: Only the first OpenVPN client would be used if
you had multiple clients connected and the first
one had a Redirect Internet set to “No”. Now,
setting this to “No” means that client’s routing
table will no longer get a default gateway
configured, allowing traffic to be processed
by other RPDB tables if there wasn’t a matching
route within that client’s table.

FIXED: IPV6-compatible DNSFilter servers weren’t
properly configured in dnsmasq.

FIXED: DNSFilter client rules may get corrupted after a
reboot.

FIXED: Fixed Cake QoS for DSL-AX82U

So I tested the new @GNUton 386.03_2-gnuton0_beta6 (GNUton has already updated from 5 to 6) and must say CAKE issues fixed for Ethernet connections (did not test wifi)

Time for some series gaming tonight when I get home (just for testing purposes)

So after some series testing with Xbox and CoD and my Son on Fifa 21 last night, the DSL-AX82U with @GNUton firmware release gamed well and had very few issues whilst gaming.

Fifa seemed a little framey and slow. so I was told.

Alas still not as good as my Netgear XR500 but much better than original ASUSWRT firmware

More testing required I think
