Has anyone played around with Linksys' QoS settings before?

What does the "Internet Bandwidth" in "Set Internet Bandwidth" refer to and how do I calculate the amount I should set?

I'm asking this because DD-WRT has an option to set the Uplink and Downlink and I'm unsure of the "Internet Bandwidth" is actually referring to my download speed, upload speed, or a combination of both.

Setting it to Auto is impossible now since this option is bugged (http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/showthread.php?t=2328326).

I am planning to set it to around 85%-90% of my actual bandwidth so that the connection does not get too saturated.

I know this forum gets a little bit extreme at times, so I only expect replies telling me what that bandwidth is and how to calculate it. Don't go offtopic telling me to try 3rd-party firmware or Linksys firmware sucks and whatnots unless you are sure it's related or by some means will be of use to me.

And just a note, DD-WRT isn't supported on my WAG160N, if you plan to tell me to use that.

Can WAG160N be configured as bridged mode for DSL? :D
