Dietrich is right, wondershaper is intended to be run on the router, not 
end points. That said, a user installing it on an endpoint would still get 
some benefit out of it when talking to the internet, but like the original 
reporter said at a cost to slowing down access to other systems on the same 
LAN as the router.

I think the fix for this bug is

A) a big WARNING in the README that wondershaper is intended for use on 
routers and while you can run it on a client and it will help, it will also 
slow down access to other machines on the LAN

B) add support for only having the rules apply to the packets sent to the 
gateway.

I think A is severity normal and B is wishlist. Both are things that could 
be fixed upstream.
