QOS: Different Incoming & Outgoing speeds?

Hi,

My home connection is via Cable Modem. I get about 3mbps IN, but OUT is capped at 128kbps.

I need to setup QOS to limit transfers from my FTP server from hogging the connection.

Is it safe to set my QoS Real BW to 128, or will that screw up my incoming connections?
If not, can I set the incoming and outgoing separately somehow?

Thanks,
Barry

OK, according to other documentation, it looks like I should go ahead and set it to 128kbps.

However, I'm still experiencing severe sluggishness on my PC Workstation (defined as BJG) when an internet user is d/l'ing from my FTP/Web server in the DMZ.

code:
1 linux_webserver     FTP     Any     low    share
2 linux_webserver     HTTP    Any     medium share
3 linux_webserver     Any     Any     medium share
4 Internal_Network__  Any     Any     high   share
5 Any                 Any     Any     medium share
6 BJG                 Any     Any     high   share
7 Any                 Any     BJG     high   share
Am I doing something wrong?

Does order matter here (for the ANY ANY ANY rule)?

What would happen if I set outgoing to 96kbps (in case my link is slower than it should be -- DSLReports.com shows me around 96-105kbps right now)? Would it automatically use all 128 if available, or would I be capping everything at 96?

Thanks,
Barry
