...external listeners connected. How much bandwidth will they need/use? Common sense says: average bitrate * 10 = 480kbps (plus any overheads) Here's the question: If I have 10 listeners connected, and the bitrate fluctuates up to 55kbps, then is the actual bandwidth requirement at that instant 550kbps? Or are the fluctuations more rapid than I can appreciate from the Winamp display? Or to put it another way, over what period of time is the average bitrate calculated, and is this period significant in terms of average buffer size? Also just quickly - could the external authentication mechani...

...This is a Slackware64 machine. Everything works great on the router itself but the problem is anything else on the LAN using this machine as a router has crap upload performance. WAN downloads via the LAN are unimpaired and run at the maximum DSL speed. Uploads from the router itself will hit ~550KBps. Uploads from any other machine on the LAN to the WAN struggle to exceed 10KBps. Wireshark/tcpdump show a massive number of retransmits on client machines, but only when trying to send data over the WAN. Oddly none of these retransmit packets seem to be passing though ppp0. Transfers to and fro...
