My gateway is connected to the internet via ATM/DSL connection, upstream speed is 0.6Mbps and downstream speed is 10Mbps. If i configure the router as a bridge between LAN/ATM ports and I try to connect via PPPoE from LAN (so i configure the Qdisc for ppp0 interface) I get the same unexpected result, so the bottleneck is not in my router.
You need to use something like htb that rate limits and set the limit for your wan speed. dsl/atm have overheads so ideally you need to know exactly how you are connecting (pppoa/pppoe/llc/vc mux/ipoa etc) to allow for these. Failing that you will need to set speed somewhat below the sync speed.
Are `prio` or `pfifo_fast` queue disciplines broken in the Linux kernel?.
Not broken, but without something rate limiting you need to be heavily maxing the eth and even then there may be buffering in driver/somewhere that can mess up some tests. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe lartc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
