What is stopping you from using the priority field with HFSC? And why don't you determine the average uplink bandwidth statistically? If you measure it for a week or so and mark out the variance and figure out the standard deviation or some such thing...then you can do what you want. >From my experience with ADSL links I find that there is usually not much variance in the uplink path. Is my reasoning correct? regards, Girish
