For 802.11 systems, I prefer to split it. I limit D/L, from internet to client, at the border router. This allows the limiting to be done before the traffic enters my wireless network, reducing congestion and load on my backhauls I limit U/L, from client to internet, at the cpe. This helps keep one cpe from monopolizing the 802.11 AP. In general, I try to limit traffic where it enters my network. YMMV sa...@michianawireless.com wrote: Question: Which is better? Throttle the cpe at the cpe or at the router?Currently we have a router setup at each tower site and do bandwidth limiting on it with simple queues and the users ip. But we want to setup our billing system so the office help can change packages and we just have it login to the ip in billing and automatically run a script to set the bandwidth throttle. But is the a disadvantage to limiting at the cpe vs. the tower? Thanks, John Buwa Michiana Wireless -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
