NAME
wondershaper - simple traffic shaping script
SYNOPSIS
wondershaper [interface]
wondershaper clear [interface]
wondershaper [interface] [downlink] [uplink]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the wondershaper script. This
manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the
original script does not have a manual page.
wondershaper is a traffic shaping script that provides low latency,
prioritizes bulk transfers below normal web traffic, prioritizes
interactive shells above normal web traffic, and attempts to prevent
upload and download traffic from affecting each other’s ack packets.
Put simply, the wondershaper makes your internet connection more
"responsive"
