I'm not sure I understand you here but, if by "consume full bandwidth" you mean the downlink will work with the shaping activated at the same speed as without the shaping, then the answer is clearly *no*. You lose some bandwidth (exactly how much, this is your call), you gain more reasonable latency. This script has the obvious advantage of being fairly simple to use, yet gives quite good results. My own experience is that top speed on a single download clocks at 75KB/s (out of 81 max) and uplink at 14 (out of 16) but, on the flip side, on a fully loaded line the latency is never more than 2 or 3 times the latency of an idle line (instead of being 2 secs flat, or 50 times as much). YMMV, though. Andrea.

Re: is there any dummy bandwidth shaping script?
Does wondershaper still consume the full downstream bandwidth when it is shaping the download traffic? Limit download speed This is slightly trickier as we can't really influence how fast the internet ships us data. We can however drop packets that are coming in too fast, which causes TCP/IP to slow down to just the rate we want. Because we don't want to drop traffic unnecessarily, we configure a 'burst' size we allow at higher speed. Now, once we have done this, we have eliminated the downstream queue totally (except for short bursts), and gain the ability to manage the upstream queue with all the power Linux offers.

I'm very happy with wondershaper, available at: http://lartc.org/wondershaper You need to tune it a little, basically you're trading a little bandwidth in return for lower latency and you have to get the right balance for you Hope this helps, Andrea. - -- Undergraduate student of Computer Science @ University of Bologna Key fingerprint: 4037 9711 85C6 F9F9 A505 FA0A BB62 3A3C F7BA 9B13 ICQ: 4905369 / JID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Made with pgp4pine 1.75-6 iD8DBQE97d3Cu2I6PPe6mxMRAh65AJ9LWrubWp7+vQeXYr33WGpKuYJEXgCeMe3U qKuMnxU3sIXmoisTXZBtmdI= =SH5X -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
