I'm uploading about 30 GBs to my iCloud drive today. Internet access of all types on all the other devices on my network was a miserable experience this morning. On a whim, I turned on Smart Queue Management. The improvement was drastic and immediate. All other device network access returned to normal. Streaming video from the Apple TV was no longer an adventure in spinning loading icons. And my cloud upload is soldiering onward at nearly the same upload rate (right around the max advertised by my ISP) as before.

Three cheers for Smart Queue Management!

Prioritizing and throttling bandwidth (especially on the guest network) would be very useful in my network.

Also I need to be able to shut down guest automatically at night.

Please go a step beyond band steering and add eero steering: the mesh steers each client to the eero with the strongest signal. The current state permits a client to connect to a strong signal, move to the edge of that device’s range, and stay connected with a weak signal. Eero should instead push that client to another access point.

I've been using OpenDNS with Eero for parental controls and see that my home generates about 400k lookups a month on average. I thought I'd try the beta dns caching feature to reduce that and improve performance. After turning it on, I see I am doing about 800k lookups / month with about half of them being a looking of cdn.samsungcloudsolution.com. It looks like that lookup is not working and so my Samsung TV retries over and over. Any advice?

Looking at the DNS caching, this doesn't seem to work at all. Firstly, clients still get two DNS addresses: one of the Eero gate itself, and the other of my ISP. So only some queries (that would be pointed to the gate would be cached) but even that's not the case: I tried little bash script dnstest which should show significantly faster response time second time around for cached queries, but that's not the case. In fact, appears slower than my ISP's DNS on 176.52.219.3...

(192.168.4.1 is Eero gateway).

Tried the new WPA3 support, but found that devices were constantly falling off the network.  When I attempted to disable, several of my Eeros got stuck in a red light mode.  After waiting 10-15 minutes, I pulled the plug on each and the network came back up.  Then I went back into the app and found WPA3 still enabled.  I disabled a second time and the slider now has stayed off.   Looks like this might be a little too bleeding edge for my network when we're all working at home.
