      I cannot find any documentation on this. The wizard creates a queue called "qLink" and I cannot figure out what this is, what it does, or how it works.

      Can someone help me with this?

        qLink is the default queue on LAN, I believe.

          It's designed to accept traffic for intra-router forwarding, like LAN to DMZ.  You probably don't want to shape it much at all.  The bandwidth should basically be the link speed. (100M, 1G, etc) which it gets from the interface link speed if left unspecified, I believe.

          I have qLink as the default queue.  If I don't put the traffic in another queue, let it rip.
