first of all, I'm using a ADSL line with 192 KBit/sec (24 Kb/sec) upstream and 2048 KBit/sec (256 Kb/sec) downstream (DSL 2000 in Germany).
You confuse Kb and KB. KB = kilobyte, Kb = kilobit.
What I originally wanted to do, was to fairly queue this bandwidth between four users. So each user will have its assurred bandwidth for up and downstream, but can borrow whats left.
192Kb/s servicing acks for 2048Kb/s doesn't leave much to spare, you will have to do this quite carefully. You might find it's better not to partition users, and just base on protocol (perhaps high-priority for ssh, NTP, DNS, ACKs, medium-priority for http requests and ftp control sessions, low-priority for all others).
Just work on upstream for now, and leave the downstream uncontrolled. You can always add it later when you are more familiar with altq.
