Setup:
ADSL2+ from Free.fr (75002 Paris, France)
v6 Freebox Server
Netgear WNDR3800 running CeroWRT v3.10.32-12
17" Macbook Pro (OSX 10.8) (wired directly to either wndr or freebox depending on the test)
fq_codel results
I'm pretty happy with these results. I'd like induced latency to be less, but 10-15ms isn't bad on DSL (I guess). What I'm happiest about is that the traffic seems to be sharing pretty fairly. However I'm not seeing the distinct tiering of bandwidth that I see on the results from higher-bandwidth setups (where the BK traffic is distinctly less than the average, with BE and EF above average.
SQM settings are as follows:
- 21000 down / 1100 up
- fq_codel (ingress ECN, no egress ECN) -- defaults
- link-layer adaptation set for ADSL at 40 bytes
Base ping is ~55ms, so this is showing 10-20 ms of induced latency under load. Not fantastic, but not something I'm going to worry about excessively. However, what I have noticed is that the traffic shaping seems more stable in .32-12 than it was in .24-8:

Dave Täht had asked about the performance of pie on dsl (my experiences have not been positive), and also it was mentioned that nfq_codel should perform better on low-bandwidth networks. So I both both of those to the test.

I think I prefer the fq_codel results over the nfq_codel results.
pie
Pie continues to not perform well at all on my setup. The traffic classes separate out nicely, but the latency can only be described as awful.
Yes, that's log-scale, and it needs it.

Parting Thoughts
Something that I find curious is the ping packet-loss during upload. It seems to be endemic to my setup (when using the wndr with CeroWRT), and doesn't happen when running directly behind the Freebox Server itself. This loss wreaks havoc with the netperf UDP pings (and their results are conspicuously absent from all the results where I was testing from behind the CeroWRT router).
