[LARTC] trying to use wondershaper on a dedicated line (not adsl)

[tek]

Hi there,

I'm quite new to trafic shaping and even with the HOWTO, I'm still a bit 
confused ...

I have a small network, with a connection to the internet on a dedicated 
line (128 kbits).  My firewall/Masq is a linux 2.19 and I want to be able 
to shape my trafic. All I want to do is exactly done with wondershaper. I 
tried it and unfortunately, the result was not what I've expected. In 
fact, I couldn't see any change in the ping response time when I use my 
link to download.
I've changed the speed in the top of the script, it effectively reduce the 
download speed, but no luck with response time ...

Does I have to change anything on the script to adapt it (I'm not using an 
adsl line, maybe this is the problem) ?

I really don't know where to start to troubleshoot this connection ...

Thanks,

Pascal.

The reduce in download speed means that you have everything you need and the 
script is working.  But the ping should also go down.  Can you send me/post 
the output of tc -s -d class show dev eth0 ??

It's even better to have a dedicated line so you have a stable bandwidth.
