Maybe I couldn''t find the right values for limit/depth/divisor, but there were no fair links for the IPs I defined. For a 128 Kbit class, I added the necessary filter and a esfq qdisc, but the bandwidth was not shared equally. Two of four clients got 4 KB, and the rest got about 2,5KB download speed. Thery wew THE ONLY users, connected to that machine. So, I''m wondering if esfq is really working as it is supposed to do. Maybe Alexander Atanasov could enlighten me (us)? Regards, Nickola

I only noted it was there. I also don''t know if anyone else is using it.
