To follow up I set up a limiter on our data center router, for one IP
doing an rsync backup to our office. No NAT. No issues yet after a week or
two. I didn't use the wizard, though I started it a few times to try to see
what it was doing. I just wanted the limiter. The time of day scheduling is
great for long running rsyncs since I drop the bandwidth down during the day.

A couple ideas based on what I read about setting up limiters...
1) did you create two limiters, one for upload and one for download?
2) in the limiter settings, did you pick a Mask setting or leave at None? Mask
will create multiple pipes, one per IP address.
I haven't watched the traffic graph that closely to see if it ever goes
over a little bit. If you're saying you set it to 28 and sometimes see 35
Mbps, I am not seeing that.
