Good day Andrew and Co,
I am using the last BWM with the following setup:
-> Lite edition with the free licence, on a Win7 PC connected to LAN via a WiFi PCI card
-> Created a single rule to limit downloading (incoming traffic) to 100kB/s
-> Ticked the option in settings/preferences which allows the software to ignore LAN traffic...
Even though, I still have the copy/paste from/to this computer limited to 100kB/s when browsing through LAN.
As soon as I disable the described rule inside BWM, I have the LAN traffic going back to full speed and the copy/paste process takes effect immediately...
Anything that I have missed? Your help will be very much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Sid-Ali

Well, in that case probably either the source or destination are not what you expect, possibly even IPv6.
Try creating a couple of rules like these:
If it's the first rule, then it's IPv4 and you should try a replacing Any with a LAN range and see if it still works. If it's the second rule, I guess you will need to somehow exclude local IPv6 addresses.
Try creating a couple of rules like these:
Source: local host Destination: Any Rate: Unlimited Protocol: IPv4 Based Source: local host Destination: Any Rate: Unlimited Protocol: IPv6 BasedPlace this rule on the top of the ruleset. Then copy a file to start a LAN file transfer and see which rule register the traffic.
