Yes! I've 3 different routers to the Internet. Currently my firewall (Linux 
router) is configured
with routes by source (I've 3 different routing table, one for each router).

I think to have found my solution. On QoS I've found a TEQL that seem to do 
what
I need, and when I found some documentation I'll try it. Do you know where
