Hi Bill, I haven't found that to be true. It doesn't create any rules for SSH. pfSense has a wide selection of games and P2P software that it will make rules and queues for, but not SSH, unless I overlooked something. Certainly trying to SSH whilst FTPing a large suffered from the same massive lag as always.
I would still like to know what the 6 fields in the traffic shaper scheduler are for though! Thanks, -Christian > Use the EZ-Shaper wizard.
