Ok Sash, I read Guidelines
People expect you to work on your problem too. If it is obvious that you haven't done any work yourself, you might not get much assistance.
I was trying to solve my problem buying special version, but problem is still there. If I know how exactly to make a rid of my problem I would not creating a new topic and asking for help here. And yes, I tried somehow by myself to make this to work, but I dont know how to set up. Im not sure what I am doing. I tryed to add MAC address and soft reboot router, but that didnt work also
Our forum is divided into the different platforms and our corporate partners. Be sure to know the SoC vendor (Atheros, Broadcom, Ralink, etc) of your router. A good resource for this info is our Supported devices list in the wiki or google.
I think that I am on right place, Wrt54GL is a Broadcom based device, and this are "Broadcom Customer Downloads & Updates" forums.
Read the announcements and any relevant stickies at the top of the forum. Also, there is a router database and a wiki. Look in these resources first for your issue, especially if it is related to wanting to know HOW to do something.
I read, and didnt find a solution, thats why Im asking for help here. New thing that i learned today from wiki is this "The uplink/downlink setting in DD-WRT are with respect to the port selected above. It's a common error to get confused. When WAN is selected these match the uplink/downlink measured. When you select "LAN & WLAN" these are reversed."
I was doing this too: "Take my advice, save your changes and reboot your router after you have completed your changes."

Search first. There are over 30,000 threads (threads, not posts) in the Broadcom forum alone. Chances are, an answer you are looking for has already been dealt with.
I searched that forums too, but after all I expected to find solutions here in Broadcom Customer Downloads & Updates, as we all know this option works only in payed firmwares.
Releases prior the current stable aren't supported. So upgrade to the latest stable release.
First I upgrade to v24sp1 stable, and then read that this release is very buggy on broadcom devices, so I upgraded to last professional payed one
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (07/21/09) std-special - build 12533
If you are responding in someone else's thread with a similar problem to assist the OP, your comments are welcome. But if you intervene into someone else's thread before they have resolved their issue, expect that you might get no replies, or run the risk of having your post deleted. In short, don't hijack threads.
Yes, this was mistake, and I am sorry. This is from this topic ( http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=39800) Sash sorry, manuelnaranjo sorry.

You must understand me, when I pay for something, im expecting that to work, aren't we all expecting that scenario? This product have his own forums with moderators, developers, and creators of this product are also on forum and open for questions. So why cant I ask for help?

this feature is working perfectly on sp2 builds.
tested it a few mins ago. so dont blame us for your wrong config.
u should read the guildelines
Come on Sash, you know you are not helping with this speech. Why are u like that? You know that im not blaming you for my situation on way you write it. Im desperate and i hope you will understand me. I was hoping ill select that speed on port4 and VOILAAAA!!...but...
Can you help me to configure this device? Can u tell me whats wrong with my setup?
WRT54GL v1.1 @ latest special firmware (Special v24 SP2 - 12533 - BETA - exploit fix)
Router is on static IP, and he is connected to internet through WAN, wireless is not in use.
I just wanna to limit lan port 4 (and everything whats behind him) on specific speed just like on picture.
on the pic that u have shown u limit the rate of the network between the router and the computer and u don't not limit the internet bandwidth and its not working like that for me im limiting them by MAC address i put the mac address and than i put a limit of 2mbps for example and that works and tested but on sp1 firmware on sp2 still i did not test it
I also tryed on that way too. In my room i have 3 PCs. 2 of them are laptops, 3rd is a pc from which I setup router. In router I inserted MAC adress (start>run>cmd>ipconfig /all) from laptop which is on lan port3, write a speed limitations (2 Mbit) on right side next to inserted MAC adress, soft rebooted router, but again laptop downloaded full speed from internet. My internet is 16down/1up megabits, laptop downloaded 2MB/s, and thats full speed.
That way no work for me too.
Can you write exact version of your firmware, your router, and can you paste a picture of your QoS tab?
Make sure you use the mac address for the device that is listed in the Status/Lan page. _________________ SIG:

Ofcourse, its the same address when I look at her in Status>LAN , and when I go to start>run>cmd>ipconfig /all .
Speed limit is not working for me.
I also try inserted static IP addres on laptop, and added that same IP address to router in form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/32 , and that is not working for me too.
Maybe I should try some other version of professional firmware? Which one is suggested ?
I like the mini builds, but I have never ran a special build to compare. _________________ SIG:
