Oh, I'm sorry, I seem to have misunderstood. I thought the LAN clients were downloading from your web server, causing too much load for it. You were talking about Internet traffic, so that's a completely different story. To make upstream fully available to your webserver, I suggest using a PRIO qdisc with 2 bands... band one for webserver traffic, band two for everything else. The PRIO qdisc will make sure that your webserver always gets to send his packets first. LAN traffic will only be allowed to send when the webserver sent all his packets. However, this means that your LAN will get effectively zero bandwidth as long as the webserver is working (someone downloading from it). If this is too harsh for you, use HTB instead - there you can specify whatever balance between web server and LAN traffic you wish (50-50 or 75-25).
