I already have my limits at more than 10% less than my maximums. All i've done differently to that is no quantum/limit. I just put those in. And my rules for general upload/download were just any->any with directions on. That post has nothing to do with my ACK issue though?

My internet cuts out completely if I download/upload at the max speed that i've rate limited them to (even 10mbps download when my real is 365). To solve this I thought of shaping my ACK's separately to everything else. However, using the TCP (ACK packets only) shaping rule didn't seem to be effective at all. I made a separate pipe that was just for ACKs and my rule was WAN outgoing that's a TCP ACK packet, go to this separate pipe. But, setting that pipes maximum bandwidth to 10mbps meant that my max upload became 10mbps, so clearly, something was going wrong. I've tried searching for similar cases and found https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=6004.0 which seems to be the same issue? I can run a speedtest on upload and the ACK queue gets loads of packets and there are points where the regular queue is not active at all. Any ideas for possible solutions to this?
