	You are Da Man!!!! But one thing I just noticed, you'll now need
to pipe your network through a Linux Proxy Server running Squid. The LRP=20
Router won't play any role.

Bandwidth Managenment HOWTO:

2. Before We Start

Let's imagine the following situation:

We have 115,2 kbits/s ppp (modem) internet link (115,2/10 =3D 11,5
kbytes/s). Note: with eth connections (network card) we would divide
115,2 by 8; with ppp we divide by 10, because of start/stop bits (8 +
1 + 1 =3D 10).

We have some LAN stations and their users are doing bulk downloads all th=
e time.

We want web pages to open fast, no matter how many dowloads are happening.
