I am running more or less the same setup sans the bridge (Linux bridges can be quite buggy at times) and it works like a charm. Be aware that that vlan devices don't have queues, i.e. a queue length of 1, per default so setting this to a more sensible value is necessary for shaping to be effective. I still don't understand why you'd want to shape ingress and don't just shape egress on WAN and combined egress on the vlan devices through ifb. Regards, Ben
