Hi Richard,

Mikrotik Router OS has some nice bandwidth management queues that can shape
the bandwidth nicely, and equalise usage between clients on the one tier
(so that no one person can hog all the bandwidth)...

it has a gui but it can be tricky... but if you get it setup right and do a
handover to the client they can tweak it in their own time after the fact
(but it is easy for them to mess things up  im afraid...)

but as costs go and features go it is very good...

ease of use ...  it is probably easier than anything cisco/ base linux
could do ...  )

I hope this helps,

Tom Smyth
