So you have 240Kbit, 1 user uses his 80kbit and other users don't get any
bandwidth. Are all these users in the same class? If they are, it's the sfq
qdisc that causes problems.
It will create 1 "queue" for each flow. Flows have different ip-addresses and
ports. So the 10 downloads ends up in 10 different queues. So the more
sessions a user opens, the more bandwidth he gets
You can try the esfq qdisc. That's an enhanced sfq qdisc. You can create the
different queues based on ip-addresses and/or ports and this for source
and/or destination. In your case, you can use the source address so each
user has his own queue. So each user has the same amount of bandwidth. I
have a link somewhere on the faq page on www.docum.org.

I think it's 3.7 but it's the same code as version 3.6.
