      Follow foxale08's guide on that page for what you want. That's what I used to achieve what you are trying to achieve.

          I have followed that guide and it simply does not want to share the bandwidth evenly… I have tried with the stable 2.3.2 and with a 2.3.3. Right now i am using the snapshot 2.3.3.a.20160817.1231 . My main goal is to achieve fair bandwidth share between my devices. My connection is 14543kbps down/1023 kbps up. With the current situation, if one device starts downloading a big file and at the same time another device tries to download something else or visit a webpage or view a video on youtube, it has at most 1mbps… And the pings go to 600ms-700ms-800ms. I try so many days to find a solution without any result.

            Give more details.

              high pings are an issue of bufferbloat. Enable CoDel. Even when my 100Mb connection had 1Gb/s getting thrown at it, my ping stayed around 30ms. Lots of packet-loss, but my ping was fine. Actually, if you get rid of bufferbloat, that tends to evenly distribute bandwidth. It doesn't guarantee even distribution, but it is biased towards it.

                  That config was working, after one of the pfsense updates there was an alert saying layer 7 limiter won't work anymore. And it didn't work. Now there is no guide to do it in new version.

                    Limiters have nothing to do with layer 7. foxale08's tutorial should still work.

                      That's odd, now i wonder why i felt like limiter is not working anymore and removed it. Let me try again then
