hi. i have discovered some time ago that i could limit the upload speed of my ppp0 interface so that i could not saturate my modem and keep a good latency to continue surfing and so on while uploading. i was not pleased or had no need for dsl_qos_queue or wondershapper so i relied upon using a simple comand line as: tc qdisc add dev ppp0 root tbf rate 120kbit latency 40ms burst 1540 and it limited my upload at around 12ko/s (yes i only have a 512/128 KBps connexion or 64/16 kB/s) but today i just discovered that with that command my upload is limited to 8kb/s as i see it in conky. and whatever the limit i set with the tc command it is still limited at 8 kb/s. so what happened ? is it because of iproute ? because of the kernel ? i use the 2.6.22 and archlinux distro. when i run $ tc qdisc, i got qdisc pfifo_fast 0: dev eth0 root bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 qdisc tbf 8006: dev ppp0 rate 160000bit burst 1539b lat 40.0ms what is the 8006 there ? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-net" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
