The above rule matches tcp traffic and puts it in the low priority queue (if you used 1:30). I guess this would therefore make UDP faster. you might also want to try putting UDP in flow 1:10 This won't affect download UDP traffic though, the wondershaper only shapes outbound (sent) traffic, and polices inbound (received) traffic. If you want to prioritize downloaded UDP traffic, you'll need to use 2 network interfaces, or play around with the IMQ device. (or one of the other suggestions that have been discussed recently) regards -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Damion de Soto - Software Engineer email: damion@snapgear.com SnapGear - A CyberGuard Company --- ph: +61 7 3435 2809 | Custom Embedded Solutions fax: +61 7 3891 3630 | and Security Appliances web: http://www.snapgear.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ --- Free Embedded Linux Distro at http://www.snapgear.org --- _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list / LARTC@mailman.ds9a.nl http://mailman.ds9a.nl/mailman/listinfo/lartc HOWTO: http://lartc.org/
