I have wondershaper running on my firewall/router. It has 2 ethernet cards (eth0 and eth1). Eth1 connects to a cablemodem (2mbit down, 384kbit up) and eth0 connects to a switch. I run a ftp server on a machine connected to the swicth. I want to be able to keep my ftp server from affecting my browsing speed.
Problem: I don't see any difference with wondershaper running. I have tried all different speeds and both eth0 and eth1 in wondershaper.
You will want to run the wondershaper on eth1. If you run it on eth0 it will be backwards.
You should be able to drop the speeds down to something like DOWNLINK=1800 UPLINK=300 and see some difference.
Are you using the htb wondershaper or the old cbq one?
Am I doing something wrong? I am testing by pinging yahoo.com.That's probabaly not the best test, you should probably check with real
HTTP requests.
Are you trying to throttle people uploading TO your ftp server (same as you downloads) or downloading FROM your ftp server ? (you uploading)
