((This is for version 3.1))
This is an odd request and I hope someone has a solution.
I am sure it can be done with mangle and queues but i suck at those two so help!

Ok so my users log on by way of PPPoE ... I have different profiles set for the users.

So lets say I have profile1 with 5 users on it limited to modem speeds (53kbps).
My wan is a 1 meg connection.

lets say all those 5 profile1 users are logged in and browsing at their limited speeds. Can we set a burst of some way that ONLY web pages load faster than the set speed? So the web page (any html file) would load faster than the speed set by the profile giving the impression for faster web browsing even though their PPPoE speed is limited to 53kbps?

all other activities such as IM chatting / downloading and so on are limited to the profile speed set.

Please advise.

use burst settings

Yes but that bursts everythhing not just html like he said.... Cant you Mark html packets and connection and use mangle, then set a burst just for html... I beleive it is possible.. I do not know how at the moment. (dont have time to try to set it up here) maybe somebody has already done this and can share there config with you -Jordan

well, http downloads do not differ from browsing, and therefore it's hard to split downloading and browsing. so use burst =)

True. But that opens all p2p programs up to burst soo its up to him.. -Jordan

Create a burst only for first, lets say, 8Mb (=1MB) - for each TCP connection - if it is P2P, loss will be insignificant (1MB for p2p is nothing), but for HTTP usually enough.

I mark this traffic in mangle for all clients - and place as highest priority virtually without limitation.


Maybe this idea can help you!

as jordan say
you can mark the http using mangle and burst only these data.
im using this way but with 2 servers , one mikrotik and the other is ISA server for cashing.
