<![CDATA[prioritize ack packet for better downstream]]>I was reading the netgate documentation about pfsense. It speaks about the downstream being affected if pfsense cannot acknowdlge the ack packet fast enough and this slows down the downstream I have a really bad upstream, so if I have some uploads going my download scrawls. I know there was a wizard configuration when settings this up where it helped to prioritize browser or just port 80 basically.

IF there something in traffic shaping that can tell pfsense to prioritize ack packet response in effort to increase my downstream?
