The packages are allready on your router, so why slowing down the
routing? You cannot hinder anyone to send you data but you can control
the questioning for more incoming traffic. (the case here is a "slow"
internet connection)

That's how I would argue on the other questions with a "no".
(Btw., afaik the traffic of 5 or 30 people would not fully load a 200MHz
mipsel router on this line, but effectively shaping for low latency
(voip) could be hard to deal with on that line).

Bye, Andreas.
