All the above just about does it for me. The one thing that is very important in my requirements for the traffic shaping is that the shaping be per user. We have a 512K down 128K up satellite connection. Even with QOS if one user does high priority traffic then it's possible even probable that that user's traffic will serious deteriorate the network for others. I know from following wireless ISP forum that this type of traffic shaping is the hardest to effectively accomplish, at least in a large scale wireless network. Perhaps it's easier in the typical environments that UT is deployed in. However, if you could accomplish an effective per user traffic shaping, not only prioritizing traffic but also so that the bandwidth is shared fairly between all users (for example all high priority traffic split that pool fairly, all medium priority traffic split that pool fairly, etc), then it would make your product very attractive to the WISP providers as well. Though I think that kind of behavior would make it more attractive to anyone. You just recently received good mention in the WISPA forum.
