Tom,

I've done some experiments with simple traffic shaping that you suggested. It 
seems to shape per connection and not necessarily per source IP address.

For instance if I have a machine doing 4 simultaneous downloads and another 
doing just one download the second machine does not get 50% of the bandwidth 
but only about 20-30%.  Ideally I'd like both machines to have 50%

Seems to work well, thanks.  Will keep an eye on it.

Then add simple shaping on the LAN side and set the interface type to 
'Internal'.
