I believe you could just use a dummynet pipe to limit the bandwidth on the range of IP's for your clients such as: # Bandwidth limiting for hosts add 400 pipe 1 ip from 192.168.0.0/16 to any add 401 pipe 2 ip from any to 192.168.0.0/16 # 5 kilobytes upload -- 100 kilobytes download pipe 1 config bw 40Kbits/s pipe 2 config bw 800Kbits/s By doing this they all would share the connection, and when only one user is one he/she gets the full potential. If more than one user is using the connection then they share the maximum bandwidth. This is the best solution that I can come up with...
