Hello,

I've just received an answer from my local D-Link service about this case:

"The bandwidth management feature only applies to upload data"

Of course, this cannot be true because in this paper (ftp://ftp.dlink.co.uk/dsr/dsr-500n/FAQ/Bandwidth_Management_setup_in_DSR-series.pdf) the example is with a server download (example I already send'em).

Very disapointed with D-Link. Looking for alternatives.

You might call support back and ask for a level 2 or 3 person and talk to them about that PDF and see if they can confirm weather or not that document is accurate....

FurryNutz,

that's what I did, twice, and the answer is the same: "the bandwidth limitation of this unit is only applied to upload streaming".

Maybe this was a feature that is not available now? It is true that the bandwidth configuration screen is different from the one in the configuration document, but I think that this feature, that is available in simpler and cheaper devices, is a must for any device of this kind.

Regards.

I'm wondering if maybe the documentation was a template for other DSR models and this feature wasn't actually meant for this model as stated by the document. Could be for the 1000N. Not sure.

I guess I would ask them what model that feature is fully supported. Other than this, we can't do anything else. Sorry.

Hi,

thank you for your help, I really appreciate it. I also have some DSR-1000 units installed for some clients. DSR-500 and DSR-1000 are similar, I suppose the difference is in the internal hardware, but the user interface and options are the same.

Regards.

Ok then. Thanks for sharing.

Good Luck.
