We'd be using a pre-shared key for authentication to wireless, so this
isn't a huge issue for me, but on a related note, I don't want
authorised people abusing the system too.

Is it possible to configure this system to not throttle anyone unless
the connection comes close to saturation, and then throttle people to
equal portions of available capacity? If so, can specific machines (by
MAC or IP addresses) be excluded from throttling?

Perhaps this could be trivially achieved through QoS on the WRT though,
and I'm just looking for excuses to use the DuxMaster ;)

Thanks!
