2.2 shaper wizard bug? VOIP / PRIQ

[Javik]

I'm trying to use the shaping wizard in pfSense 2.2 to boost VOIP priority only, I don't care about anything else.

From what I'm seeing, apparently you can't use the VOIP wizard option if you are using PRIQ. Though, I guess if you can't do that, why does it act like it can do it? It should detect that situation and not allow you to attempt VOIP prioritization.

(Also, I realize 10 megabit is a ridiculously high bandwidth guarantee. But we've had VOIP delay / dropout problems and I want this fixed and not have to deal with it anymore.)

Bit higher recently due to fone techs doing remote access monitoring over the voice VLAN:

Forget the wizard.

Just create 2 PRIQ queues on the WAN. A default queue for all unclassified traffic, and another queue for exclusively VOIP.

Then setup a floating rule in the firewall that directs all VOIP traffic into the proper, prioritized queue.
