Nah not so. I have spoken to the ISP and it happens. I don't want to stir things up too much as the faster speed is great. I do have some programs that will consume all available bandwidth if allowed hence I would like to alter the available bandwidth but I want these to run etc in the background. These incluse Mysql etc

I would personally get the client sorted out and then you have a better starting point. You may want to run some antispyware on your client to clean it up. A good free version is from http://www.free.grisoft.com/doc/5390/lng/us/tpl/v5#avg-anti-spyware-free (This is a professional version that continues to work after the trial expires, and limits the automatic features) If you are running a MS client you can also turn off Automatic updates in the services area, which will reduce network traffic. A client PC should remain happily quite in the corner until asked where it is or to get something by the user, not chatty or constantly downloading or worse, uploading everything it hears.

Yep there is always someone that has to do things unlike everyone else and I am that person. I live remotely and have looked at Pfsense for traffic shaping as I have a 2 way satellite feed. Here in Oz, its all I can get out back. Problem is, the feed isn't consistant. I am meant to have 256/64 but at the moment, its up to around 1.5mb/512 So if I set my incoming and outgoing limits, it can effectively cause the traffic shaper to cut some of my bandwidth. Is there a way to have PFSense detect THE TOTAL BEING USED and then alter QUEUES from that? What I am trying to achieve is a percentage for each queue depending on how much I have available coming in? Trust me, at 256/64 its slow so anything more than that is very welcome but if I fail to check, Pfsense cuts it back. If I simply turn off the shaper, then some things hog all the bandwidth.
