Subject: [LARTC] Traffic shaping and MTU/MSS
Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2003 07:35:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <marc-lartc-106966386410469@msgid-missing> (raw)

Hi,

I'm using traffic shaping on my home 1.5M/256K ADSL connection. The problem 
I'm running into is even when I'm shaping upload traffic (web server/p2p 
etc...) I run into latency issues with online gaming. This is of course due 
to the 256Kb upload and the 1492 MTU (PPPoE) which means a single large 
packet will take up to 40ms to transfer. 

What I would like to do is reduce the MSS for low priority traffic using 
ipchains based on a fwmark value. Is it possible to do this? 

Appreciate any other suggestions to solve this problem.

Thanks.

Marc
