Correct, ALTQ can only shape traffic exiting (egress) an interface. To shape a WAN link bi-directionally (both ingress and egress traffic), we shape downstream traffic as it egresses the LAN interface and upstream traffic as it egresses the WAN interface. You can still achieve shaping from OPT1->WAN, but you will _not_ see the shaping from WAN->OPT1 (granted, we're on the wrong side of the link to be terribly effective, but it does work, just not as well as having shaping occur on both sides). Interestingly, the way we're currently setup, you'll also see shaping occur from OPT1->LAN.
Okay, glad to see I wasn't on drugs :) So my idea of bridging OPT2 (with my roommate's router behind it) with WAN should work then? The ONLY thing I care about is his hogging the precious upstream BW :)
