  12kbps is too high for 10 clients, u shld accomodate burst, am sure ur=20
probably breaking the ceil parameter

  i believe perturb is 10secs

  there is sth wrong, for example i have 20 systems each having 4kbps and=20
DAP running on one doesnt exceed the 4kbps dedication, if there browsing at=
=20
the same time, there browsing alone gets slow cause the've used up almost=20
all there allocation
