Thank you for testing!!! If you could stash the *.flent.gz files
somewhere I could get at, that would be great. You can also browse the
plots using the flent-gui to see more detail over time.

Cake, long available as an out of tree build for the edgerouter, has
both dsl compensation and an ack-filter which would help A LOT, in
your case. i wish I'd pushed harder to get dsl compensation into the
edgerouter smart queues code...

https://community.ui.com/questions/Cake-compiled-for-the-EdgeRouter-devices/fc1ff27c-f321-4344-8737-fcc755cae8a2

Given your 500kbit upload speed the minimum latency inflation under
the structure of this test (4 upload flows) should have been around
150ms (4 * 25ms + ack overhead), but without looking at the *.gz files
I don't know what your baseline latency was to any of these sites. (it
would be good if flent reported on the text output what the minimum
actually was)

These are statistics from a relatives location where they only have a DSL line from CenturyLink available to them. There's a little Debian based VM I setup for a couple random things so I was able to run flent from that. They have a EdgeRouter X serving as the router so they can at least take advantage of fq_codel through the routers Smart Queue feature. I ran a quick speed test, then ran flent without sqm, and then with sqm. Sorry if this gets a bit long and hopefully it stays readable.
