      no, its top speed is half the assigned limit.

        So.... it's not exactly half? Or not consistent? (or both!)

            So to be clear it is in fact always exactly half the configured speed?

              okay, it is half of the configured limit at best...
              I set 4 Mb download, it only do 1.75-1.8 at best..
              at worst.. it's 0 point something..

              Took backup of 2.6 -> upgrade to 2.71 = Not OK.
              Fresh install 2.71 -> re-create all rules and limiters = Not OK.

              I'm sure now I have to stay at 2.6

                Ok just reviewing the thread I'm unsure if you tested setting the default gateway to ISP2. Does that make the Limiter on ISP behave correctly? Does it break the Limiter to ISP1?

                That behaviour is very similar to issues we saw on earlier versions when we moved Limiters from ipfw to pf.

                  Yes what actually bothers me is that it always a problem to ISP2..
                  This ISP2, the gateway ( NATing ) is debian box, that got me thinking that there might be a problem with the debian gateway box..
                  But then again, if i remove the limiter to this ISP2 , it's full bandwidth, vlan to debian box, or vlan to internet.
                  And, no matter what default i set it to, always to this ISP2 that has problem with limiter.

                    And conversely the Limiter on ISP1 is still good even if you set the default gateway as ISP2?

                      Yes. No matter which gw is default ISP1 or ISP2.
                      But since i've done so many reinstall, re-upgrade, and install from clean...
                      I am not sure anymore.. Sitting tight with 2.6 now.
                      Waiting for any probable good news.

                        Hmm, there's got to be something different about that Limiter. Though nothing in 2.7 should affect it so maybe it's something else which is affecting the Limiter rather the Limiter itself. Like something in the multiwan routing.

                          I really don't know myself..
                          But i tried it by upgrading from 2.6 which works fine..
                          and clean install..
                          both fail.

                          I set it this way.. CMIIW..
                          2 WAN, each WAN's interface i set the default gateway to ISP1 & ISP2.
                          LAN interface, i set it to none, or L3 switch doing intervlan routing inside ( no queue mgmt at all at L3 switch )
                          Turned off NAT.
                          In Settings - Routing - I set the default gateway either ISP1 or ISP2, or automatic.
                          It just works everytime with 2.6.. i even reinstall the 2.6 as well for testing purpose.
