Define 'alone'. That is the hard part of your question, telling us exacly what you want. Basically you want 2^5 configurations: 00000: nobody 'active' 00001: only B4 active .. 11111: everybody active You need some kind of script to determine activity, and chose the right configuration. But do you really want this? I would suggest a HTB configuration whereby you guarantee everybody 102K, and put the ceiling at 512kb. This way, all bandwidth is available, but everbody gets a least 102kbit/s.
