I wanted to use pf+ALTQ with my ADSL connection (pppoe with ppp), everything is set up like in /usr/share/examples/pf/ackpri (using tun0 as external interface, and NAT so that another PC connected to the internal interface can access the internet), but the ack packets don't seem to be prioritized. pfctl -vsq shows some packets passing through the high priority queue (and a lot through the default queue, of course), but when the upstream is full, download speed still drops significantly. I tried tuning the bandwidth specified in the altq statement but it doens't seem to make any difference.
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-bugs->mlaier mlaier imported altq
State Changed From-To: open->feedback Too few details on the actual ruleset and configuration.
Responsible Changed From-To: mlaier->pf Over to freebsd-pf@ for more exposure and helping hands/eyes. Does anyone have comments on this? I can only say: Works for me.
Responsible Changed From-To: pf->freebsd-pf Change owner from "pf" to "freebsd-pf" so that the freebsd-pf@ mailing list will receive only one remainder
State Changed From-To: feedback->closed Timeout. If the problem still exists, please discuss on freebsd-pf@freebsd.org
Hello, i have the same problem here! Even 50% upload bandwidth limitation will result in a massive drop of the download rate. My setup: - ADSL 6000/576 - userland ppp - FreeBSD 5-STABLE - pf with ALTQ and priq queueing on the tun-device Boris Staeblow
