Are there any planned upcoming improvements in the latency and jitter department for ePMP3k? I've been pleased with the throughput performance overall with ePMP 3000, but the jitter is horrendous compared to ePMP 1000 and UBNT AC gear. Consider the following:

This is on a sector with ~35 CPEs and at present, about 70% frame utilization. I don't see jitter anything like this on more heavily loaded ePMP 1000 APs. On ePMP 1000 the latency goes up predictably as subs are added, but jitter is almost never a problem.
If everyone was just streaming netflix it wouldn't matter, but with the new reliance on Zoom and other remote work, this has me moving customers back to either ePMP 1000 or UBNT AC.
This feels like pre-tdma linksys routers in an outdoor box sort of stuff all over again. Is the ePMP3000 scheduler still just that unrefined? It seems like it has been a few years now that I've been hoping this platform would mature.
