  • [X] I am reporting an issue for OpenWrt, not an unsupported fork.

I reverted back to 19.07.10, errors now gone. Everything backed up so can swap back if you need some debugs etc. image

Why only PPPoE? There are some reports of increased ingress latency in 22.03.3 and this is mentioned in the forum post for the release. It may be a packet steering issue - have you tried toggling that? Also SQM is showing different results so maybe try that.

It's packet loss not latency, while playing PUBG the packet loss constantly bobs between 0 and 3 %

I'll try these settings but may have to wait to the weekend as is a bit of a pain...

No, your test is only for incoming ICMP pings which are not prioritised with your current setup, which is presenting itself as "loss", but none of your normal packets are experiencing loss - unless you've tested for that independently.

I "test" with PUBG every evening for an hour or two, equally affected as far as I can tell

PUBG has data quality stats constantly running on the screen during the games, time of day or local broadband load seems to not affect the values.

Some people have reported a better outcome when reverting to 22.03.2, so I recommend trying it on your next test.

Upgraded to 22.03.2, restored the 22.03.3 archive and it's now running error free.

Unless you need some more information from my setup I'll stay with 22.03.2 and live with that for a while.

Packet loss happens over wired or wireless connectivity?

Wired, waste of time fault finding in wireless.

For info I've upgraded now to 22.03.4 and the problem has not returned
