Hi guys. Today I noticed something that might be the answer to why my internet connection tends to get slow from time to time. tcviewer shows: 2:1251 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 576.8 kbit/s ( 49pps) 2:1067 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 430.5 kbit/s ( 39pps) 2:1013 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 155.5 kbit/s ( 21pps) 2:961 < 512000bit - 512000bit > 38.2 kbit/s ( 42pps) 2:1101 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 34.9 kbit/s ( 7pps) 2:1155 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 6.2 kbit/s ( 1pps) 2:1345 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 4.5 kbit/s ( 4pps) 2:1211 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 3.0 kbit/s ( 1pps) 2:1003 < 512000bit - 614000bit > 2.2 kbit/s ( 1pps) which means not many users are really online. iptraf shows that my WAN interface is almost maxed to 14580kbits/sec and my internal iface traffic is only at 1673kbits/sec which tells me that: 1. traffic passing through squid (checked the access.log) and is showing traffic to the user with 2:1251 class: 172.16.100.139 http://s9.videobb.com/s2?v=t8sVz3gItZpm&r=1&t=1299677838&u=&; .... 44 Mb 1h 24m 56s http://s56.videobb.com/s2?v=obSt3vOWf0cd&r=1&t=1299677906&u= .... 71 Mb 1h 23m 57s http://s68.videobb.com/s2?v=LMiY4UGsGhMy&r=1&t=1299677969&u= .... 30 Mb 1h 22m 24s 2. Since, I'm shapping or throlling the user's speed to 512kbits then all traffic coming in is hogging my line. I thought that when an established connection was being throttle that my gateway will be the "manager" for this connection and as a result it would control the speed at what the server is serving the file to the user in my lan. This is an user or two that's hogging my line imagine when 30 or more are connected simultanously. I'm thinking of installing a mikrotik to balance our 3 5mbps lines and throtle connections like that to 100kbits... What can I really do to fix this? Thanks in advanced for your time and help. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
