Two thoughts:

1) Are you sure that your pipes are correct?  If you try to overallocate 
either pipe (especially the upsteam, but downstream too), you'll end up 
with an almost unusable connection.  Make sure you don't exceed 90% of 
your actual maximum.

2) How sure aure you that your BT traffic is getting into the "Bulk" 
queue?  How do you define the difference between Regular and Bulk?
