There are others you can find on Google including YouTube videos.  Pipes =
set the bandwidth limit so if you put 20 people in the same 1 Mbps pipe =
they will compete over that 1 Mbps.  If you created twenty 1 Mbps pipes, =
one per person, they would each be limited to that but in total six full =
speed connections would max out your 6 Mbps connection.
