Do you know if hardware flow offloading works with Archer C7 V2/V5? I see the option to enable it, but I don't know if the hardware actually supports it. I'm finding conflicting info, older posts say that it's only supported for MT7621 devices.
It will bypass a lot of the network stack so it can't work with SQM. Software flow offloading works on all hardware and will give you a lot more performance if you're CPU limited though. Hardware flow offloading only works on some hardware not all but if yours is supported yes enable both.
Yup, enable both if you don't use SQM
