Seems like mine is worse

Thanks blacktubi for constantly helping out.

I changed QoS Profile to Work From Home and capped both my DL/UL to 25Mbps.

Currently my bufferbloat issue improved a lot.

However, it might still spike once in a while even in LAN cable. Is it normal?

I have high latency due to I located in East Malaysia most probably.

It's normal for our ping to be on higher side.

I tried to do so with my t9uh v1 WiFi, will move my PC downstair to do LAN cable test if I have more time.

Thanks a lot for your help Momo33.



Thanks BenYeeHua for investing so much of your time in helping me to troubleshooting.

I tried to reinstall the driver but my t9uh is Ver1 instead of Ver2. But I managed to changed the WiFi Mode in Control panel.

Along with setting the QoS Profile with 25Mbps for up and down.

This is my latest result as of I am typing this message. This is over the WiFi.
I tried to use LAN cable and it deviate by few ms.

Thanks andreakua2 for your helping.

I checked the total upload speed during my video conference on my ASUS Router page.

It's about 3Mbps upload. My current plan is symmetrical speed which is 30Mbps for up and down.

I don't mine to pay more if subscribe to higher speed could solve the problem.

I was 300Mbps Unifi user previously but not really utilise the speed. So when moving house, I just opt for the cheapest package to save some bucks.

Thanks a lot for your sharing, hasmidzul. You seemed to know in depth about networking.

If I want to do something like that, is it need to install OpenWRT firmware?


Thanks yenchenje for your valuable time to do so many testing and sharing here.

I raise a report to Celcom and it's already 1 week+ and they have yet to solve the problem. A technician came over to do some testing and told me "Celcom line memang begini, better subscribe to UniFi)

Here's my Fibre reading.


Currently after applying QoS capped to 25Mbps for up and down. I managed to get grade A. So does it mean that my isp has problem or it meant to be like that?
After apply the basic QoS 25Mbps up and down, I seemed like solved the bufferbloat and getting grade A or C (worse) currently.

Wondering this indicate my ISP has problem? or it meant to be like that ya?

I am sorry for being late to get back to you all with more testing result.

Here is my LAN Test result.

Hi Prokiller, do you use any QoS for this?

When I don't use QoS, my ping shoot up to 500-600 or even 1k+.

Currently after applied QoS,it seemed more stable than usual

Based on your latest test, it looks very healthy now. Glad that my recommendation works for you

Spike is unavoidable, it's normal and shouldn't be disruptive.

Really appreciate your help, blacktubi!

Currently thinking of pulling a cat6a cable from downstair to upstair.

Wondering any good brand of cat6a that you all can introduce? Might need to route it from exterior of house to first floor of the house. Haven't engage with any contractor yet to see whether it is feasible to hack the wall from ground floor to first floor

ask ts to put a 80mm/120mm fan and see if spike continue. can buy those plugged into usb type

Draka is decent, but honestly unless you're getting like cheap random crap from like Aliexpress, all of them should be more or less similar. If u want like really proven good quality cables, try and check if you can buy from infinite cables or even better ubiquiti. Tho for ubiquiti they only sell in spool of 306M for not patching cables, you can try to check on carousell.

If you want something that's more cheaper but still decent quality, I'm currently using a super thin cat6a I bought from taobao(Tmall) and it's quite good, super thin so you have to be careful, and currently the longest I got is 2m and still decent. Not sure if their 50M holds up but I like how thin they are and flexible they are.

Plan to buy a few more shorter cables to use coupler/patch panel to patch the white/blue LAN cables away soon , far from the best but already a decent upgrade from the rats nest I had before

Yes, much better for WiFi now, as you can see, the unloaded get lower and stable now.

cat6a is overkill la lol.
Cat5e or cat6 enough.

Unless you target 10Gbps future proof, then yes, inside wall then put the cat6a better la.

Yup, if asking 1Gbps, just slim/thin enough.
If asking future proof, better standard ethernet cable.

Just thinking, why Google Meet is lagging, is the problem.
Can't you lower down the video resolution?

And yes, upgrade to higher speed is recommend, as this is for your jobs, not a daily unimportant usage.

So for the listing
1. Upgrade higher speed
2. Change to cable

I will say, try another time for Google Meet now, as you solved most of the problem.

Then, if it still lagging, it means you are lacking high speed, you need to either
1. Upgrade higher speed
Or
2. Lower Google Meet received video resolution

And count it as solved, lol.

Nope, using AX86U. I tried QoS last time, it limit my speed. But I think all happens because I use wifi, LAN off QoS also no ping spike.

what brand switch you using i see big

Qos not required when you are high speed + not using multi-thread download + not p2p.

Because fyi, there is TCP window algorithm to ensure low buffer while high speed, good algorithm will keep your latency low and no packet loss, bad will bite all the speed and left nothing.
Also, higher speed means lower buffer on your router, thus hardly to facing bufferbloat.

And yes, if you bound by your WiFi speed(WiFi>unifi speed), then it will ensure low latency and max WiFi speed.

What u need is to upgrade ur internet speed instead of buying a better wifi router for such low speed internet plan.

Just a Chinese 16 port PoE switch I got from taobao. Used to run a TP-Link 8 port with 4 port PoE but the jump up to 16 also only means that I get 8 + 8, and since my fam is moving soon, might as well get a decked out fully PoE capable switch for future upgrades

Tho I’m currently looking at another Chinese switch from AliExpress, 8x10GBe port with PoE for about 300USD

Unless he need to record down every Google meet, just downgrade the video resolution also works.
Not like a 1080p monitor need to saw each face with 1080p quality lol.

i think Chinese switch is no good maybe poor quality i doubt

my office upstairs hp switch 16 port 1GBPS almost full and i still really need 48 Port imported future proof
because downstairs is shop counter pc 2x and weight machine 3x and cctv and 16 port was full so i connect weight machine router
almost full crazy

will add too that why 48 Port really need Good quality without problem

hp switch sometime unstable its poor quality

So far so good still for what I'm using it for, 2x PoE devices, 5x normal GbE. And as long as it works and holds up it's fine. A bit lighter than a 16 port switch but I haven't encountered any issues. I understand the need for actual branded/high quality switches for like an office space or w/e but for homelab, this is perfectly reasonable.

220MYR/65$ USD from Taobao shipped for a 16 port GbE PoE switch with 2x uplink and 1 SFP port

yah need for actual branded/high quality switches for like an office space
because staying 24h7d imported due CCTV running 24h7d very imported

hmm you is home usage lucky you

POE is best for WIFI ACCESS POINT
