limit upload speed

[jls]

How can I limit the upload speed?

[curaga]

- iptables with the limit target
- the traffic control tools in iproute2

thakns: I'll try them

Hi
I've found this command but it returns an error:

Code: [Select]

sudo tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 45kbit latency 50ms burst 15
40
RTNETLINK answers: No such file or directory

funny that the command is called tc

Hi jls_legalize
Maybe you need to install  net-sched-3.0.21-tinycore.tcz ?

[jls]

that did the trick, thanks Rich

Hi jls_legalize
You are welcome.

That package was built in 2009. Is it possible those modules were built in at the time and have since been
separated out, making net-sched a dependency now?

Only the traffic control part of iproute2 needs those modules; the route/ip control tools work without. I'll add a mention in the info file.
