no, sorry... I have to say the ipfw/natd/dummynet configuration is rather
convoluted here so it is a bit hard to tell whether the
problem is in dummynet calls or divert sockets.

I am also confused by the numbers in the initial report:

there is a mix of two different notations, Kbps and KB/sec, and
i cannot make sense of them.
Finally, I am curious as to why one would mix the upload and download
traffic, i believe *DSL data rates are independent in the two
directions unlike analog modems...
