Hi,

Sometimes a computer on my LAN uses all the available bandwidth.
How do I setup Shaper?
Goal: Max bandwidth as default accept for some computers.

Now I have: Four Pipes: Down/Up for Max and Limited.
No queues.
Four rules: Down/Up for Computer to limit first (Limited pipes) followed by rules for LAN (Max pipes)

At the Status page there are stats for the max pipes but none for the limited pipes.


Yes. I thought so too.

But when I download a file from the computer with limited bandwidth it does not show up on the stats page (0 bytes accessed 1970-01-01T01:00:00).
The pipes and the rules are on the stats page.

So, or the docs/configuration has to be changed, or Shaper does not function as it should.

Are you sure that you download the file from an IPv4 source and not via IPv6?
