Abstract

This study analyzes the Quality of Service (QoS) performance comparison of the Per Connection Classifier (PCC) load balancing method on two router platforms MikroTik RouterOS and OpenWrt. The research addresses internet connection instability issues caused by increasing users and trafic load. Using a simulative experimental approach with GNS3 software, tests were conducted under three scenarios, single ISP 1 connection, single ISP 2 connection and dual ISP load balancing. QoS parameters measured include throughput, latency, jitter, and packet loss based on TIPHON standards. Results show both platforms effectively implemented PCC load balancing. MikroTik RouterOS excelled in downstream throughput stability (0.45 Mbit/s) and lower average latency (33.23 ms). while OpenWrt demostreated superior upload performance (0.98 Mbit/s). Both platforms maintained 0% packet loss. The study concludes that platform selection should align with network priorities MikroTik for downstream stability and OpenWrt for better upstream performance.
