You can indeed use the MAC addess in a u32 match by using negative offsets. See the faq article for details. http://www.docum.org/docum.org/faq/cache/62.html This will work to enforce your w1/w2 based download limits on the LAN interface. However, when your upload packets leave the WAN interface, the original workstation MACs will be long gone before the TC processing occurs. You could use the mac source tests in iptables and marks to propagate the information to the TC phase.
