Do you suggest that I should configure PCQ (equal/fair bandwidth sharing/distribution) on the Mikrotik routerboard or should i leave the bandwidth sharing to Squid as suggested by Amos?

there's no correct answer for your question, it all depends on your network topology and your desires.

if you desire to control bandwidth of ALL traffics (P2P, SMTP, POP, HTTP, etc etc), then you should do it in mikrotik. If you want only http bandwidth control, then it can be done on squid. But if your client PC uses anything different than http, which does not goes through squid, then bandwidth would be unlimited.

each one is correct ??? The one that meet your needs. There's no correct answer without knowing what you want.

but i suspect you want to control the FULL traffic, then doing in Mikrotik would be probably smarter.
