Hi Ermal, That sounds very interesting, but I cannot figure out how to create the child(s) and apply it. Do I have to create the child limiters for both LAN & WAN or just a single child limiter and apply it on two different rules - one for LAN and other for WAN?
Is it possible to demonstrate this with images? Or perhaps a config I can import into my test system? I have 25Mbps up/down and would want it to be divided equally among the active/connected clients.
