    Sorry, I think you are thinking of something else. Maybe a railroad crossing (:-))

    Joking aside, the https://www.waveform.com/tools/bufferbloat test looks to see if the networking software is working correctly by putting a large load on the network, and then seeing if other streams are affectec by the overload.

    The example on the https://libreqos.io/ home page is of

  • TCP's congestion control saved the internet
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Sep 2023
    fq_codel was successfully offloaded in a few products, however, no offload here, just a xeon with a ton of cores and a big L3. On the libreqos case we leveraged some ebpf to do packet steering in what we call the heimdal bridge, and also kathie nichol´s wonderful passive ping concept: https://github.com/thebracket/cpumap-pping

    src here: https://github.com/LibreQoE/LibreQoS/

    You can get a transparent high speed bridge with shaping capability up pretty rapidly with supported hardware.

    I still long for an ethernet card that can do a trie lookup natively! The flamegraphs are mostly getting the right packet to the right cpu, still.

  • SpaceX no longer taking losses to produce Starlink satellite antennas
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 16 Sep 2023
    That's doable. The HOA doesn't sell internet. Just pays for a Wi-Fi network that happens to reach you.

    I'd advice two high performance dishes (dishes are known to fail and support is an issue so one on standby while waiting) and a business connection. You'll need a third party router with fair queuing, protocol and service speed shaping etc etc. I'm sure both openwrt and opnsense will do. But check this out https://libreqos.io/

  • A dilemma of choice
    1 project | /r/tmobileisp | 1 Sep 2023
    Still, ya know, a modernized kernel on the devices is a start, better wifi, also, and if they do get arround to adding at the very least driver support for the linux BQL or AQL subsystems, and apply fq_codel, or cake, they could certainly manage the uplink better. At the higher rates supplied by the link, the wifi becomes the bottleneck for which solutions appeared in the Linux kernel in 2016. There has been some good research on actively managing the link via the sqm-autorate project, and multiple middleboxes such as those from preseem (fq_codel), and my own libreqos.io (cake) , might be able to manage the downlink better with the addition of link level stats, at very minimal CAPEX per subscriber.

    Also, people would notice starlink going to hell less often if starlink would just deploy libreqos.io.

    With dual 2.5 Gb/s and Alder Lake single-thread perf, I was thinking high-end latency-optimized QoS/Firewall for gigabit internet. CAKE and LibreQoS would love this thing.
  • Bufferbloat and NBN FTTN. Is it normal to only get a C rating on a waveform test across 3 modem routers?
    1 project | /r/nbn | 8 May 2023
    It is so wonderful to see so many happy SQM users all over the world. That said, do you think NBN might consider installing libreqos.io to benefit all their other users one day?
  • SQM (optimizing for videoconferencing and gaming) on the current eero products
    2 projects | /r/amazoneero | 13 Apr 2023
    I am curious as to the availability and functionality these days of the fq_codel option on the eero 6 and eero 6 business? When I last paid attention about a year ago ( https://www.reddit.com/r/eero/comments/u7xm83/gen_2_sqm_vs_gen_3_sqm_stick_with_gen_2_if_you/ ) only the gen2 had cake, and a lot of folk struggled with correct behaviors at +500Mbit with the 6's implementation of fq_codel. (The +500Mbit problems kind of indirectly spawned the libreqos.io project, which pushes the inbound shaping to a middlebox at the ISP) Anyway, did it get better? Does RFC3168 style ecn work on the wifi?

    You probably already know this, but the team behind Cake SQM are pushing to get ISPs to implement the free LibreQoS on their side, so that many more users could benefit from SQM: https://libreqos.io/

  • Cheapest decent solution to connect/convert amiga 500+ scart signal to hdmi?
    1 project | /r/amiga | 9 Jun 2023
    I built a ESP8266 controlled GBS8200 as main scan converter. https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control You can get a GBS8200 for about 24$ + shipping and an ESP8266 doesn't cost much. And also it just needs basic solder skills. Not really complicated to build. Then you have a great VGA output. And that you can convert to HDMI with a cheap VGA-HDMI adapter. I personally use an old Eizo 5:4 VGA Monitor because of the aspect ratio but sometimes I do actually connect it to HDMI to record things in OBS.
  • Upscaling ITU BT.656 480i NTSC Video to SVGA 800x600

    Try searching for GBS-CONTROL. You should probably start looking here: https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control
  • I just got this cruisn usa board from ebay and it seems to be giving an error code and no video. Anyone familiar with this?
    1 project | /r/arcade | 3 May 2023
    Some games also require you to move the sync signal over to the next pin, some games require sync signal to both pins at once. It can take some fiddling for a few games but I've always gotten it working eventually. It could help to also go ahead and upgrade the board with GBS control. I have my Rush setup that way and it's pretty handy being able to adjust the picture wirelessly with my phone.
  • Best N64 to HDMI converter?
    1 project | /r/n64 | 26 Mar 2023
    In my opinion GBS-Control. https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control

  • Best/Budget Friendly CGA converter.
    1 project | /r/retrobattlestations | 11 Feb 2023
    Arcade "CGA" isn't real CGA, it's just analog 15 kHz RGB. You'd have to use something like this to convert the CGA from your computer into analog RGB if you want to feed it into one of those GBS-8200 boards. They're not very good unless you modify them anyway. I use an OSSC to convert analog RGB to HDMI, but that's more expensive.
  • I build a GBS-Control to use with my new Saturn. It works great!
    1 project | /r/retrogaming | 28 Dec 2022
    After a bit of research, I almost pre-ordered a RAD2X HDMI cable, but that would likely be around $85 after shipping, and wouldn't get here for a while. Also, it only works with the Saturn, while I was hoping to find a solution that will work with other retro consoles. Luckily, I came across this video by Voultar showing how to build a GBS-Control.
  • Ps1 to pc monitor
    1 project | /r/psx | 22 Nov 2022
    If you know how to wield a soldering iron then a GBS-8200 plus gbs-control firmware does a good job too for a much lower price, but that does get pretty technical.
  • Ask HN: What weird technical scene are you fond/part of?

    - Sometimes the web UI won't have 1280x960 checked, even if it's outputting a 960p signal. I don't know if this is connected to the vertical shift bug, or if .

    Again I'd have to dig into the GBS-C source code to find out why mode changing behaves oddly. There will be a lot of learning to do, understand the software state and chip registers and how they correlate to profile settings and input/output behavior. I suppose I could file a bug at https://github.com/ramapcsx2/gbs-control/issues, but somehow I feel reluctant to do so, partly because I didn't fully understand the setup and don't know if many of these bugs wouldn't happen on a VGA CRT, partly just learned helplessness and not knowing if my bug report is detailed enough or will be ignored or attacked, partly because I'd prefer to chat with the developers in Discord/Matrix outside of a higher-stakes formal bug report or a forum I've never posted at before.
