      What would be the best method to guarantee bandwidth to individual clients?  Following the below link, all is straightforward except for "Then direct the guaranteed service traffic into the first two limiters, and everything else into the "total" limiters.": https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Limiters#Using_Limiters_for_Bandwidth_Guarantees

      Where are the instructions for that segment? Would this be added to our WAN firewall or our LAN firewall?  Thanks in advance.

        I think limiters are currently (pfSense 2.2.2) broken.

        You might be able to accomplish your goals with CBQ or HFSC queues.

        Please correct any obvious misinformation in my posts.

          Alright, thank you. That avoids me spending hours on this.
