currently I am lookig for the page, because YOU CAN shape incomming
traffic.

For example: You can have an ADSL with 8 MBit, but ich you use an
old 386/40 you will get only 1/2 MBit. So you must slow down the
tcp protocol ore something like this...

I have had for some month a Link how to do this with Kernel 2.4.XX
