ASUSWRT: "Download Speed" and "Upload Speed" sensors show the same value

[Lurker00]

The problem

The router is Asus RT-N-66U with firmware that does not support HTTP/HTTPS control. It is Merlin LTS fork 374.43_51E3j9527. That's why I'm limited to Telnet/SSH. I have reasons to continue using this line of the firmware, rather than newer official or Merlin versions.

The upload/download speed sensors always show the same values, considered that they are taken from device not atomically:

The current readings of the values used by aioasuswrt library via SSH are quite different:

ASUSWRT-Merlin LTS RT-N66U 51E3 Tue Aug 31 09:39:52 UTC 2021
router@RT-N66U-1D90:/tmp/home/root# cat /sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/tx_bytes
2164377468
router@RT-N66U-1D90:/tmp/home/root# cat /sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/rx_bytes
4177409478

So, it seems the OPENWRT integration uses only the first value (RX) for both.

I'm a new HA user, so I don't know if these sensors ever worked correctly.
