I hear of this program 'wondermaker' ... which would enable one to interectivelly browse the web & stuff .. while still downloading at max speed possible (eg. the download speed would lower to leave space for browsing when one needed it) ... do you know any other such tools? I've installed this one and ... well, seems I don't know what to do ... do you by any chance know of any gui tools with which one could graphically & interactivelly lower the speed of ongoing downloads to make room for some browsing?
The shorewall firewall can be configured with the 'Wonder Shaper' as described here http://www.shorewall.net/traffic_shaping.htm
However this not the sort of project for a newbie with a few weeks experience.
A simpler form if prioritising services can be made by changing the priorities in /etc/shorewall/tos You could make ftp a lower Type of Service there.
