I adjusted the size of the roots (in and out) to match my bandwidth.  I bumped up wan and LAN acks per the FAQs in the forum.

Here's what I'd like to do:
Two Xbox 360s, both on static IPs (actually, DHCP reservations, but yeah) – make these higher priority than normal traffic
P2P traffic (Bittorrent) from a single PC with a static IP, static source (out) and destination port (in) for the traffic -- make this lower priority than everything else
SSH and RDP traffic - guaranteed bandwidth, high priority but low amount.

web, everything else - "normal"

I started playing around by making a pair of new rules based on the P2P defaults.  I made them more specific, per the single PC mentioned above and the aforementioned static source port on the outbound rule and static dest port on the inbound rule.

I didn't get anything in the P2P queues even after these new rules, and I'm not sure why.

I seem to remember seeing someone mentioning that the default "no lockout" rule on the LAN has to be removed for shaping to work, is this correct?  Will shaping work if I use an "Allow all" policy on the LAN?  (This is my home network and I trust all the stuff that touches it.)

Since I'm already asking one shaper question, here's one other one.  My home connection (Cable) has a "burst" feature where they allow some much higher amount of traffic for about a minute or as long as bandwidth is available, and they then drop down after a while to the "rated" download speed.  Is there any way I can allow this with the shaper, perhaps by setting the WAN queue double the rated amount?  Most of my shaping needs are on outbound traffic anyway, so I don't care as much if the inbound shaping doesn't really work.
