Hi everyone, Closing Problem: Bandwidth management is not working as expected; instead of streaming data inbound with 237 Kb/sec without bandwidth management, it drops to 29 Kb/sec (tendency falling) with enabled bandwidth management. Fault: It's a shame, but "Kb" means "Kilobit" and not "Kilobyt

Thanks for your reply, first of all, I'm using a ADSL line with 192 KBit/sec (24 Kb/sec) upstream and 2048 KBit/sec (256 Kb/sec) downstream (DSL 2000 in Germany). What I originally wanted to do, was to fairly queue this bandwidth between four users. So each user will have its assurred bandwidth f

Thank you for your reply, yes, your right so far. For a single user "inbound" bandwidth management makes no sense. In terms of network management only "real" outbound bandwidth management makes sense: If the packets still arrived, why throwing them away? After all, in my case we have 4 users payi

Thank you for your reply, but unfortunally the values and units are right. This also shows in a real slower webbrowsing capacity, when bandwidth management is enabled. > altq is looking at kilobits per second and you\'re probably looking at kiloBytes per second > > (237Kb/sec / 8bits/Byte=29KB/s

altq is looking at kilobits per second and you're probably looking at kiloBytes per second (237Kb/sec / 8bits/Byte=29KB/sec) [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Hi everyone, > > Problem: > Bandwidth management is not working as expected; instead of streaming data > inbound with 237 Kb/s
