Why not qos for downloading stream??

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

HI there

Simple question :-)
Why there is always only qos examples for upload and not download stream of adsl? I have a linux router which shares 5 wireless "customers" my neighbours and me to
one adsl link 512kbps download 128kbps upload ...
Now does it make sense to do qos on the linux router for download for us?
Say if someone is using ssh from outside ...
So I tried to apply the example 15.10 of Cookbook of the lartc howto on the linux router ... I have for every neighbour a class which limits its traffic to 128kbps and below that
I addedd the whole tree of example 15.10 on the router ...
Or does it make more sense this to do on the ap with ingress? I have a full linux
ap router for each neighbour.

Now comes the filtering and I was wondering if there
1. makes sense i.e. it helps us if download speed is at limit to priorize ssh, voip etc. 2. what will be the cpu load if you have not only 5 connected clients if not say 30
and a lot of filter rules i.e. each customer needs his full filter set ...

Has anybody such a thing in production or is it "useless"?

Greetings

Beat
