<pre wrap="">DD-WRT will do both HTB and HFSC shaping, though I've only ever used HTB.

<pre wrap="">Sweet. We had been using HTB but upgraded all our CPE to use HFSC when
AstLinux did and found it great.

<pre wrap="">Cool, looks good, although I would have thought Default Bandwidth Level
would have been pretty self explanatory if it works as expected.
I guess I'll have to try it out and update the wiki if it does.

<pre wrap="">Looks like they don't recommend HFSC currently due to some lag issues.
That might have been fixed, though, in the more recent firmware
builds.

<pre wrap="">Will try both out and see how they go.
Thanks for the pointers.

Matt,
The WRT54GL is not dual port.

Chorus from the audience:- "Oh, yes it is!"<br>
<br>
It has 5 ports! Although the ports are labeled as 1 Internet port and 4
LAN ports, each can be assigned to a VLAN of your choosing and you can
use them as you please (at least you can under openWRT). So you could
allocate 2 WAN ports on distinct networks and leave 3 for the LAN.<br>
<br>
I haven't done it myself but a far more clever gentleman at
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://garycourt.com/blog/post/openwrt-advanced-firewall/">http://garycourt.com/blog/post/openwrt-advanced-firewall/</a> seems to know
how.<br>
