 **Download rate:** This is the minimum download speed the router will try to allocate to the client while when other clients on the list are also downloading. The total of this column for all clients on the list should not exceed the total “Download Bandwidth.” If the amount exceeds “Download Bandwidth”, the entered data will serve no purpose when all network clients are downloading data.
-**Download ceil:** Download Ceiling is the maximum download speed FreshTomato will allocate to the client when more bandwidth is available. Such conditions include when other network clients are off, or using less bandwidth than normal. The less bandwidth they use, the more becomes available to allocate to the specified clients. This is especially true for those clients categorized with higher priority settings.\\   \\ {{:bandwidth_limiter-default_class-for-unlisted-mac-ip_s-in-lan_br0_-2022.6.jpg?828x429}}

-**Priority:** This sets the position of the bandwidth rule, relative to other clients, in the netfilter module. FreshTomato has five priority settings. The higher the setting, the more preference will be given to the client's allocated bandwidth, relative to other clients. Clients with higher priority settings will also experience lower latency as a side effect of being earlier in netfilter's priority list.

 **TCP Limit:** This is the maximum number of active TCP connections for this IP address. Limiting active TCP connections can help avoid network saturation due to download utilities or P2P programs, such as BitTorrent.

 **WAN Reboot: **Bandwidth Limiter should reboot the WAN interface only when Captive Portal is enabled. However, with releases 2020.8 and earlier, Bandwidth Limiter will reboot the WAN interface even if Captive Portal is disabled. The router will drop the Internet connection until the WAN interface is reinitialized and the WAN connection is renegotiated. This was fixed in release 2022.1.
-**Max Available Download** is not literal. You should actually enter a number calculated as follows: (the minimum speed of 3 download tests done at different times of the day, x 85%). QoS should be disabled when the speed tests are run, and there should be no other traffic. //Failing to do this will likely result in Bandwidth Limiter not working properly.//
