Greetings, I am looking for optimal settings for my GL-A1300 router, which I operate with USB tethering. I use it at home for gaming & I wanted to ask what the best settings are for this? Which extensions make sense to install via the admin menu?
Regardless of router you will find gaming to be hit and miss with any LTE data plan or WISP, that just comes with the nature of the wireless uplinks.
Some packages to consider on the router side. Install via Luci - http://YOUR-ROUTER-IP/cgi-bin/luci
SQM - luci-app-sqm | helps with bufferbloat / lag
UPnP - luci-app-upnp | helps with mapping ports for games
Again, these packages may not really help depending on how the routes are created over your tether. Things like CGNAT can hinder open ports for gaming, SQM maybe not help due to latency with LTE too. But those are two things that can help with gaming.
Thank you for your help and explanation on the subject, I should add that I receive 5g and get up to 300 mbps. Of course this has nothing to do with latency and other complications that can arise, but thought I would mention it. Are there any other settings or apps for the phone that I should download?
There is cgi-bin/luci under the advanced settings. However, I have never received a password for the Admin Penal. Which stanart password is then common for the login in? It was not admin or password.
None that would be beneficial.
The password is the same as your glinet admin panel password.
