      Hosting a web server behind an upload-limited circuit might not be the best option, considering the number of VPS options in datacenters.

      DO NOT set a source address/port in a port forward or firewall rule unless you KNOW you need it!

        It's a small internal tool that's also used by remote employees, so it doesn't need a ton of bandwidth but i need to at least guarantee it'll have at least some bandwidth instead of other clients hogging it all. All our public facing stuff is hosted on VPSes  ;D

          @KOM:

          Create a simple PRIQ shaper, then add a floating rule that directs the traffic from the specific IP address into the highest queue.

          Would I do this on the LAN or WAN interface?  I'm trying to prioritize outbound traffic.

              jr.fenol, you kind of hijacked someone else's thread. Why not create your own. 34.6Kb/s, that's slower than dial up.

                So here's what I ended up with.  The network didn't explode and I haven't heard anybody complain about speed issues yet.  Did I do it correctly?

                  Get rid of that first rule that does nothing.

                  You're missing an ACK queue.

                  Did you go through the wizard that you can find on the last tab in the Traffic Shaper section?

                    Did you set the bandwidth on the interfaces?

                      guys, these set up are made by the former administrator, so can you help me allocate how much bandwidth should each 300 user get, in 30mbps dedicated lines.

                        jr.fenol, could you create your own thread instead of spamming someone else's?
