I was wondering when someone would try to ride this meme...


Which is great except for the fact that their ad campaign says nothing about actually setting the size of the buffer. But maybe I just missed it. Here's the howto they link for setting up QoS:

after 15 months of trying, finally getting someone in marketing to pay a little attention, kinda feels good...

even if they totally missed the uplink portion of the problem. Or maybe they are doing detection?
From the url above....

"NOTE: You can set the Upstream Bandwidth to Auto or Manual, whichever is necessary.

To allow your router to detect the maximum level, keep the default Auto.  To specify, select Manual then enter the appropriate bandwidth and select Kbps or Mbps."


Perhaps some commentary on the above blog entry will clarify matters... (keep it civil please!)

There's even a contest. Why didn't I think of that?
