You can use the esfq qdisc (see the faq page on www.docum.org for a link). It
works like a sfq, but you can specify how it split the data in different
queues. In your case, you can use the ip-address as hash key. So each
ip-addess has his own little queue.

Or you can create a script that parses the ip-address from the router,
determines the network address and creates a htb class for each possible
ip-address. Not so difficult to do.
