    @FixMaster:

    But when i check at Traffic Graph, It download 300kbps (Means he got 3 Mb line)

    Actually, I want to point out that this is not true. 300 Kb = .3Mb. 1000 Kbit = 1Mbit.

    It won't matter in this case.  ToS is useful for prioritizing traffic before putting it onto a slower link.  It is not very likely that the T1 is actually faster than your LAN setup, so I can't see this making any difference whatsoever.

    This is a routing problem, not a traffic shaping one, per se. More info on multi-WAN in 2.0 here: http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,10407.0.html

    You need to create a rule on the LAN interface for DST port 80, Gateway: ADSL.
    Similarly, rules on the LAN interface for DST port 25, 110, Gateway: DIGINET.

    These rules go above the default pass rule if you have one.

    thanks guys for your replies!  I REALLY appreciate help because I am such a noob in networking, especially with linux…

    Yes I have squid installed, but I barely know how to use it.

    serangku, I understand squid might be able to help saving bandwidth, but at the end of the day, if the users are downloading all kind of different/non-repetitive data, it will not work.  Think about rapidshare files or torrents...

    dreamslacker, I only use NFS shares to transfer files between machines.  Marginal amount of data through http (only web services such as mediawiki and Knowledgetree a document management system).  Preferably, setting the delay pools only on the WAN side would be best.

    What would be the first step in implementing this?  DO I need to modify the squid.conf file of my pfsense box using the examples on the sites you sent me?

    Oh..  In that case, the rules will be added directly under Traffic Shaper.

    Just set to:

    LAN->WAN
    Protocol: ICMP
    Source and Destination IP & Ports to 'ANY'
    Target:  qWanAck/ qLanAck

    @jimp:

    If the data hits your router, it's a packet you received. If the packet was dropped/rejected, your ISP may not know that, they just know that the packet was transmitted to you.

    Odd that it doubled, that doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

    It isn't odd.  The rejected packets are expected by the clients behind the box.  Since they will not acknowledge the receipt of the packets that were dropped, the packets get retransmitted at the source again after a certain time when the source doesn't receive an receipt confirmation from the client(s) behind the pfsense box.

    Yes because usually when people are using torrents with nonstandard ports their traffic would be classified as default. So I configured default queues similarly to p2p queues to filter them anyway. Other important traffic has his place in qothersH, qVOIP, qGames. These are the types of traffic mostly important for me to prioritize. ICMP belongs to qOthersH which has its fair share of bandwidth so I don't understand why delay with modem happens when I do a ping test.

    Additionally my voip programs seem to work fine since I set them up in a shaper. No chopped voice (very clear) and delay seem to be fine. I didn't test it much but team speak or skype seem to work just fine. I set the rules for the games as well but they have a horrendous delay once I have some other traffics running (usually torrents) while voip seems to be unaffected http://thuocdongduoc.vn/

    So assigned bandwidth for prioritized traffic seem to work fine but priority of packets is not really working correctly. I just need more testing with voip to be sure if delay is not affected there when torrents are working.

    Thx for any replies!

    This is easier on 2.0, using limiters. There you can set a limiter which can apply either as a group, or individually per IP.

    I used MyQoS in dedicated machine with 2 nics, I bought 100Mb/s license, actually I got about 75Mb/s and 1000 wireless users. It can be used as NAT + QoS, or just QoS alone(working in bridge mode).

    Yes, it has Web GUI, it's straightforward if you looked through manual carefully.
