I have my farm wired with Satalite internet and I don't need my mother-in-law consuming all the bandwidth uploading a picture file cause she can't figure out to compress them from bmp format before sending them. So in goes the traffic cop between the modem and a switch. Next step will be maybe somekind of advanced caching to speed up websurfing over satalite, but that will be another day.
