I am going to setup pfSense as gateway/firewall in front of a small wireless
broadband system with 10 to 20 houses connected.
We want to prevent one single house from taking up all bandwith, when other
users can use their share, but not to restrict anyone unnessessary, when demand
is low.
I have found howto's that make permanent limits on each users or ip-numbers
bandwith, They seems to make that limitation without taking care of, if the
limitations is needed.
Other howto's shows how to make smarter QOS limitations based on different
applications like telephones versus http-download that is only active, when a
service actually needs the bandwith.
Do you know of howto's that can limit users bandwith, when the line is under
heavy use, but not, when that user is alone on the line, and that do not care
if the user is downloading an ISO, streaming HDTV or making a video-conference ?
You create a limiter for the total amount of bandwidth available, then create a
child limiter that masks on IP addresses.
Make a limiter for uploads masked on source addresses and a limiter for
downloads masked by destination addresses.
Everyone has the full capacity unless/until there is contention.
The steps are outlined starting here:

I have tried to follow the screenshots from foxale08 (took some time to
understand, the the images is only shown, when you are loged in to the
forum).
I lost the track between no. 22 and no. 23. Can anybody tell, how I come
to those options, or if they are still needed ?
