Hi guys,

I have this problem too. I have two Internet routers connected to the
same Ethernet interface (using a hub). And each one obviously needs to
be shaped seperately. It seems like a very common and logical scenario
and this issue seems like a design problem.
Any Ideas on a workaround? Perhaps IMQ can be used somehow (although I
hear it has serious stability problems...)?
