I think that it would make more sense for AQM to be deployed as a
default on Emtel wifi plus modems, rather than their customers
deploying an intermediate box to do AQM. The huawei box is running a
linux firmware already. The code to do AQM is available for free on
the internet, and it's just a matter of integration and testing
firmware updates.

This would help as the majority of Emtel wifi plus customers are not
hardcore techies. There was a video where a customer broke down the
Emtel wifi plus modem with a hammer.

What do you think ?
