Thanks for the update. I just spent a number of hours on the shaper and think I found the problem. This does appear to be an OS level bug but I've sort of worked around it in our config. Beta 2 is just around the corner, the fixes, which require the wizard to be re-run (I've enforced this for those upgrading), will show up there (or if anyones willing to apply a patch - http://www.pfsense.com/~billm/20060225-shaper-fixes.diff - requires re-running of wizard and possible reboot). I removed the upperlimit setting from the wizard - it's still available in the UI for those that wish to break their config as I'm hoping we'll get some resolution from the FreeBSD side on this soon.
