        Ah, that is easy, in your home-router that is you :); no one else knows 
how much you value uninterrupted VoIP sessions. Now as always this is not 
perfect as you can not fully control the marking on the downlink, but in that 
case I still think it makes sense to mark on your router and shape the 
downlink, while not as good as the uplink shaping and marking it still improves 
things noticeably.
