I would try to install "luci-app-qos" package for OpenWrt/LEDE, it
adds
to the web interface the setting for limiting upload and download
speed.

I never tried to use it with LibreMesh, no idea if it works out of
the
box...
The web interface does not appear to allow the application of rules
depending on the time of day:

As he needs to have a specific behaviour, perhaps you can use that
package but with a set of cron rules instead of the visual tool.
Based on the same suggestion from Ilario, and info from this page
https://lede-project.org/docs/user-guide/traffic_shaping
I would suggest you to:
* install the qos-scripts: opkg install qos-scripts
* add the rate limiting you need:
uci set qos.wan.upload=1000 # Upload speed in kBits/s
uci set qos.wan.download=16000 # Download speed in kBits/s
uci set qos.wan.enabled=1
uci commit qos
* enable or disable qos with cron
/etc/init.d/qos enable
/etc/init.d/qos disable
Doesn't look to have the time scheduling
included.
WonderShaper seems to be obsolete:

Well... for what I read it is not that wonder shaper is obsolete, but
more that the tools that wondershaper usually uses add buffer bloat,
something that you really don't want to add... so you better use the
other one :)
in fact there's sqm-scripts now, which are the buffferbloat-approved
tools and obsolete both wondershaper and qos-scripts ;)
i've used them (there's a luci-app for them too) precisely to limit
upload/download bandwith and it worked like a charm.
there's no builtin time-scheduling support but you can make a small cron
script for that, for sure
Let us know how it went!
