Yes, the other option is to move it to a server with more bandwidth :) Most People that are running it from home either don't know how or don't know that they are running a firewall or have an ISP that won't let them touch the configuration of the modem/router. So you are one of the lucky ones.

I was seeking a way to manage connections by capping the data transferred and I wondered if this would impact MySQL. The consensus was no, and that was good :) Even though my solution had nothing really to do with MySQL I want to post it here in case anyone else has a similar situation. I thought that I needed to modify my ipchains firewall rules, when in fact what I really needed to do was built into iproute2 "traffic shaping" commands. FYI tc qdisc was exactly what I needed.
