Thanks for the Edgerouter link, saved me doing some Googling - Off to got and apply this now and see what difference this makes to the Bufferbloat tests.

As Arie mentions, this is a little more involved on the EdgeOS stuff, but doesn't look too complex for those that are used to a CLI or two.

Edit: Entirely off-topic, but an equally interesting find – There is a WireGuard client for the EdgeRouter line: https://community.ubnt.com/t5/EdgeRouter/Release-WireGuard-f...

Ah crap, I wonder if I've done the wrong thing going with a switch + Security Gateway instead of an EdgeRouter.

You get integration with the Unifi UI and a much easier configuration experience, you lose only because what you've got is (probably) overkill for residential use. If you've got more than one AP then you start to win again because you can power all your APs from the switch.

If you were happy with your setup before hearing about the EdgeRouter, I hope you'll still be happy with it now :).

It looks like I'll be fine with the US-8-60W and the USG until I get an Internet (downstream) speed of > 100 megabits, which, in Australia, is not likely to happen for a long time.

I'd hope I'd have upgraded my LAN to at least 2.5 gigabit by then, anyway.
