Why don't you limit the transfer speed in WinSCP? https://winscp.net/eng/docs/ui_transfer_custom

I wish it was that simple. If I speed limit WinSCP to say 9mbps then something else starts to upload something then it'll kill the internet (which always happens because there's an HLS stream uploading in chunks too).

No news? Got a big event this weekend, it's gonna murder my internet when I'm uploading with WinSCP over SFTP :(

I'm trying to limit the upload speed of the entire network. I've got the rules in place but it very rarely limits my upload speed and it NEVER limits it for WinSCP SFTP uploads over port 22 :(

Download limiting works flawless.

How I know that it "rarely limits" my upload speed is that I'll set it to some real low number for the upload speed and I can go a day or two without noticing it then I'll try and post a video to facebook and it'll say something like "8 hours remaining" then I boost up the upload limiter and boom, finishes quick. I'll go to speedtest.net and the speed will be limited just fine but if I fire up WinSCP and upload a file over SFTP port 22 it doesn't limit the speed at all :( A few hours later or the next day then the speed limiter isn't limiting anything anymore (speedtest.net, etc.) and I can't figure out a way to get it back. Another day or two later it'll randomly start limiting again everything but WinSCP.

Here are my settings:

Pipes:





Queues is empty

Rules:





Speed test with pipes enabled:



Speed test with download pipe set to 30mbps:



Speed test with pipes disabled:



What am I doing wrong?

(P.S. WAN2 runs everything except for some iptv and voip boxes).

I run the traffic graph 24/7 on a monitor and it would be a lot easier to see big traffic spikes if the traffic graph didn't auto scale. I would like to lock it at 50/10 so the minor traffic doesn't show up as big spikes and attract my attention unnecessarily.

If anyone knows what to hack in status_graph.php or if there's another way please let me know.

Thanks!
