Multiple streams from Microsoft and LLNW at the same time. LLNW alone had maybe 10 streams going and was sending at over 15Mbps on average and at worst about 25Mbps... to a 1.5Mbps subscriber.

Maybe I'm being naive but this sounds like an issue primarily with buffers. Police rather than shape the traffic, and reduce the burst size, and a lot of this should disappear... M
