Pathetic work by Airtel causing frequent disconnections

I guess outsourcing ground work is worse than LCO model. Hopefully this doesn't come to other direct cities.
 
Excitel is doing the same for the new cities they have launched in, they have little to no customer service, and the people maintaining the fiber (ie. third party contractors) have no direct clue nor any way to fix technical issues.
 
If you want the most accurate value, it will be different for every ISP due to various physical and configuration difference from one ISP to other. Start from 40 and build yourself up from there until you get a stable connection with respectable bufferbloat.
Speeds above 50-100Mbps you won't notice much throughput for pps difference so if you overestimate overhead it's fine and do not overshoot your ISP bandwidth limit, try to keep it atleast below 90-95%.

On cake SQM I set mine at 120/120 on my 150Mbps connection and I get A+ on DSL reports bufferbloat test. On My Netduma I have to set it on 70%/ 10%.
 
Does changing SQM improve things? Loaded latencies etc? I have a spare C6 lying around. What are the benifits? Will I see 400 Mbps plan going up to constant 600 Mbps?
 
SQM(Smart Queue Management) is a packet management and queuing system used to improve loaded latencies ie. buffer-bloat.
It won't improve your speeds, more like it'd reduce them but it'd improve the quality of your overall connection across various applications, regardless it's only useful if you find yourself in high bandwidth usage scenarios.
 
Also C6/C7 with openwrt does not have the CPU power to handle sqm with high speeds. Even normal speed caps out at 350-400 Mbps without any traffic shaping. With sqm you will top out at 150-200 Max.
Anything above that you need a dedicated router like nanopi, rpi, nuc
