Description

After using traffic shaper wizard when you completed it you can get decimals in "Max bandwidth for queue" and other values also, that causes shaper to malfunction and ignore those queues or when you want to change something in queue settings this causes error messages in pfsense. The solution is to use WHOLE numbers instead of decimals.

It would be good to make target version 2.4 instead of nothing. Thanks.

Would you please clarify for me?

Does the problem occur when you enter decimals in the wizard, or when values you enter in the wizard result in decimals after calculation?

Can you provide step by step instructions to reproduce please? Particularly "when you want to change something in queue settings this causes error messages in pfsense"

Thanks!

I updated you instructions a little since "default" is not always the same in the Wizard.

Fix part 1: HTML inputs that specify the bandwidth have been updated to accept decimal values.
Part 2: Calcualted bandwidths are now rounded down to the nearest integer.
