The project aims to develop an open-source software architecture to integrate L4S technology into Wi-Fi routers and GPON terminals, with the goal of reducing latency in wireless access networks. The solution will incorporate intelligent congestion management mechanisms based on Reinforcement Learning, capable of dynamically adapting to variations in Wi-Fi links. As a result, a Proof of Concept will be developed and validated, together with OpenWRT-compatible modules, seeking to provide Internet service providers with an open alternative that requires low computational resources and avoids vendor lock-in.
