As a workaround the transmission speed of the host NIC can be reduced: 1 Gbps

only Sunshine's traffic is slowed down.

Such a solution on Linux could look like that:

93+
```bash
94+
# 1) Remove existing qdisc (pfifo_fast)
95+
sudo tc qdisc del dev <NIC> root
96+
97+
# 2) Add HTB root qdisc with default class 1:1
98+
sudo tc qdisc add dev <NIC> root handle 1: htb default 1
99+
100+
# 3) Create class 1:1 for full 10 Gbit/s (all other traffic)
101+
sudo tc class add dev <NIC> parent 1: classid 1:1 htb \
102+
rate 10000mbit ceil 10000mbit burst 32k

# 4) Create class 1:10 for Sunshine game stream at 1 Gbit/s

sudo tc class add dev <NIC> parent 1: classid 1:10 htb \
106+
rate 1000mbit ceil 1000mbit burst 32k

# 5) Filter UDP source port 47998 into class 1:10

sudo tc filter add dev <NIC> protocol ip parent 1: prio 1 \
110+
u32 match ip protocol 17 0xff \
111+
match ip sport 47998 0xffff flowid 1:10
112+
```
113+
114+
In that way only the Sunshine traffic is limited by 1 Gbit. This is not persistent on reboots.
115+
If you use a different port for the game stream you need to adjust the last command.

Sunshine versions > 0.23.1 include improved networking code that should

alleviate or even solve this issue (without reducing the NIC speed).
