While using htb have a look at r2q option and quantum (1500 bytes more or less). Threre is a special formula for it: quantum=(rate in kilobytes)/r2q it shuld 1500 byte. Try to set r2q to have on this level.Good thing is to have conn-limit patch from patch-o-matic to limit max connection from one client - it lowers ping too. Please do write what did you do and if it helped to resolve the problem. Good luck. > > > Without QoS, while uploading some files via ftp i have pings (in my > > favourite > > > game) 1000+.
