In contrary.  The bandwidth option in cbq should match the real physical link 
bandwidth.  I don't know how this is done on rf networks.
Comared this to htb.  Htb uses a token bucket system to control the rate of 
the data.  This has nothing to do with the physical link.  It just send data 
at a certain controlled rate.

I'm not a specialist in this.  But I don't think I'm telling any lies :)
