Manually Throttle the Bandwidth of a Linux Network...
This does a bad job of simulating a slow network. First, as others mentioned, it only throttles outbound. It also doesn't simulate buffer bloat.
Linux network stack isn't designed for this. The best easy thing to use is BSD's Dummynet pipes.

The Linux network stack is perfectly capable of simulating bufferbloat and other network degradation, in either direction. This article simply fails to mention the relevant modules.
