      I enforced bandwidth limits on one of my firewall rules. How come download is fine and starts slow, but if i do an upload it will be super fast then slowly come down to the actual limit i put it on?

        Burst speed after being idle perhaps?

        In 2.1 theres an option to state normal speed and a burst speed when its been idle which might be what you are seeing, hence the above.
