very good video. of course the VOIP devices have to set the TOS flags and m0n0wall priorizes them then. it would not make any sense to set lowdelay and throughput flags on all UDP traffic, then you would not be able to priorize VOIP over other UDP traffic what is one of the major functionalities of VOIP datastream priorizing.

Thanks! very good video. I don't have any voip but I do have a huawei gateway for my mobile phones. It's like having a cell mobile antenna inside your house. I believe the same principles apply.

Can I check if the single host indeed applies to the traffic shape rule?

Also I do not have a way of measuring the actual speed. I saw from the traffic graph inside m0n0wall that when I make a call using the gateway the traffic never exceeds 80kbps. So I created two pipelines of 80kbps each. Better way?

Do you understand the meaning of the TOS (type of service) setting @ 8:05?

You tell m0n0wall (MW) to only match packets what already have the lowdelay and throughput tags on them. With those options enabled, if you want MW to prioritize voip traffic you need to configure each of your voip devices to set the lowdelay and throughput tags on their packets.

I get the impression you think you're telling MW to set the tags on the voip traffic rather than filter traffic with the tags already set

VOIP is at 6:50

Very good screencast !

Just followed your settings (almost to the letter).

thanks !!
