This problem like the IPv6 deployment has a solution but ISP's are wary of changing the network.

The Bufferbloat issue has been worked on for the last 20+ years and the CoDel algorithm is a great step forward to fixing that issue.

Try it out for yourself on Linux: To turn on ECN to help feedback to the AQM in the file: /etc/sysctl.conf add the following line: net.ipv4.tcp_ecn = 1

To alter the Active Queue Management scheduler alter the following file: /etc/rc.d/rc.local and add the following line: tc qdisc add dev eth0 root fq_codel

replacing eth0 with the name of the computers network card.

For windows: (All these settings require the “Run As Administrator” permission) To show the current state of the TCP settings: netsh int tcp show global

To turn on ECN: netsh int tcp set global ecncapability=enabled

To turn on CTCP: netsh int tcp set global congestionprovider=ctcp
