Upload shaper problem

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hello guys,

 

I am experiencing a strange behaviour with HTB. Here is my situation:

 

Test PC -------- internet ------------- ISP ----- fiber connection --------- (eht2) RT1 (eth1) --------- wireless connection ------------ (eth4) RT2 (eth0) -------- users

 

RT1 – Slackware router

RT2 – Slackware router

 

Delay between Test PC and ISP is approx 450 ms.

 

I have the following shapers

RT1 ETH2 – dedicated bandwidth for Test PC 40kbps

 

RT2 ETH4 – dedicated bandwidth for Test PC 30kbps

RT2 ETH4 – dedicated bandwidth for users to upload is 250kbps

 

The thing is if I use Test PC to download from RT1 it makes straight line of 40kbps. If I use TestPC to download from RT2 the traffic varies from 3kbps to 30kbps. It is very random. If I start a transfer on RT1 from RT2 I can see there is much bandwidth available I can use 230kbps.

 

We simulated the Test PC connecting is straight on eth4 of RT2 with the same IP address it has on internet in order to not change the shaper and the transfer was exactly as specified in the shaper – 30kbps

 

So I am wondering is it possible that because of the delay of the Test PC the HTB doesn’t work properly and somehow trafic with bigger delay gets lower priority?

The test PC otherwise downloads from anywhere on internet with about 50kbps.

 

By the way RT2s CPU is busy between 6-25%. What is the recommended CPU usage on which the HTB will be working acceptable?

 

Any hints will be much appreciated,

Regards,

Bisser Milanov
