Not sure how how difficult it would be to get the following added to perhaps an Option 4 sub-menu:

4a: Upload Stats: tc -s qdisc show dev eth0
4b: Download Stats: tc -s qdisc show dev ifb9eth0
4c: Show traffic control settings: tc qdisc show

Thoughts?

@Adamm00 - two comments:

1. Would be good to go back to Option 3 menu than all the way out
2. Is this one a bit more difficult than the other 2? Show traffic control settings: tc qdisc show

Not sure what you mean by this

Is this one a bit more difficult than the other 2? Show traffic control settings: tc qdisc show

We show the important parts of this under the general option.

First item ugandy mentions here as well: https://www.snbforums.com/threads/release-cakeqos-merlin.64800/page-40#post-599088

Steps from Main Menu:
Select 3 (Cake Status)
Then pick any Status option
Hit any key to continue -- takes you back to the Main Menu, and not the Status Menu (preferred)

Hope that helps.

That's unfortunately not how the menu system works, it would require significantly messier code (every menu/submenu would need to be a function) and add unnecessary complexity for minimal benefit.

While it may be exciting to constantly tinker with cake because its a shiny new toy, it is designed to be a set and forget solution. Interaction with the script at all should be almost non-existent post configuration in a regular use-case outside debugging.

I agree...I've settled on the defaults as my "best" for everyone. besteffort docsis ack-filter

Just thought it would be easy sub-menu-ing if just checking status and queues/tins. Just and extra couple inputs to get back to the Sub-menu screen. If it's too much effort, then kindly park it :) I can live with the extra clicks!

I keep pushing the KISS mantra -- don't ever worry. It's what started me here. Flex and FreshJR has too many configs to get it to a stable/working state. This just works.
