I use 5kbit to test, to see if it's working at all.
The above doesn't work (it doesn't limit bandwidth).  Can you tell me
what's wrong with what I'm doing?

The scripts use filters and limit it to ports, I want to try limiting the
whole bandwidth.  I tried to modify the scripts but I can't get it to
limit the bandwidth.

I want to come up with a script to do what I want, the first step is to
figure out how to just limit bandwidth with cbq with no other options, but
I haven't figured this out yet.

What would I need to do, with cbq, to limit total bandwidth to 5kbps?  I
think I can figure it out from there.
