      Hello,

      I've set up Traffic Shaping on some networks, and at least on two of the networks so far, the high priority queues are showing a fair amount of drops - how could this be?

      Is it normal for this to happen?

        If the total attempted throughput for a link would have exceeded the amount of bandwidth defined for the link, then it would drop from any queue.

          I see.

          What I put into the Wizard's 'Connection upload speed' shows up afterwards in the WAN 'Bandwidth' field.

          Is it possible I have upstream and downstream mixed up?

            Shaping happens outbound on an interface. Uploads go out WAN. So it's correct.
