oh.. can you tell a bit more on how you set up the QoS in the sense that
which client gets what sort of allowed bandwidth?

Cause, I've mentioned already that from what I read, I can only successfully
control the upload and not the download.

Say my pipe is 1.5Mbit and I want to separate that into 256kbps/384kbps and
512kbps
on different clients. How would you write the tc rules??
