Hi everyone I'm running an Alcatel Speedtouch 510v4 which deals with PPPoE on it's own and gives DHCP for the internal network... what a charm. My link is 3008kb download and 800kb upload. I installed Packet Filter in my box mainly to give a performance boost by putting a big priority on ACKs. Based on Shamim Mohamed's pf.conf for ADSL, http://www.drones.com/obsd-fw.html I have this: altq on $external priq bandwidth 790kb queue { highpri_q, default_q } queue highpri_q priority 7 queue default_q priority 1 priq(default) pass in quick on $external inet proto tcp from any to any port $services \ flags S/SA keep state queue (default_q, highpri_q) pass out quick on $external inet proto tcp from any to any \ flags S/SA keep state queue (default_q, highpri_q) pass out quick on $external inet proto udp all keep state pass out quick on $external inet proto icmp from any to any keep state I'm wondering, is the bandwidth for upload or download? If it's set, as-is, for upload (790kb) wouldn't that also limit the download as so? If it's set for download (3000kb) wouldn't that be useless for prioritisation of the upload? Vincent Rodrigue
