Author says he needed a device that's capable of shaping 200 Mbps, and therefore the Ubiquiti EdgeRouter line is not adequate.

However, just shaping traffic in the upstream direction (10 Mbps) is sufficient. An EdgeRouter can easily do this.

    From the article: "very few routers provide the ability to shape a single direction of traffic in software this is the case with Edge Routers)"

    Perhaps he updated after seeing your comment :)

Excellent, the author addresses latency-under-load and the use of queue mechanisms (CoDel) that are designed to avoid excessive queuing latency.
