This reminds me of an discussion I had with a user who tried the 
autorate-ingress feature unsuccessfully, it sems he would have needed an 
additional toggle to set the lower range for the bandwidth as due to some 
quirkiness his ingress did not as much get autorated but rather throttled. So 
@Jonathan and @Toke, is that just an unfortunate sould that can't be helped or 
does such an additional toggle make some sense (if only as a safety belt and 
suspenders kind of thing). If yes, I might try to actually test it.

Best Regards
