Bandwidth Limiting

Post by Murray »

Hey guys,
Do any of you know of a good program that I can use to limit bandwidth of users on a simple home LAN.
If so please refer me to one.
Thanks for your help!

I never tried this so I'm not sure, but I think this involves using pretty high end routing equpment so be prepared to pay big bucks. You might be able to do it through software on each computer, but that would be less efficient and easy to bypass.

Sitara Networks makes a really nice network QOS box. We use them for prioritization on our networks at the office. I especially enjoy the look on user's faces when you shut down their yahoo radio stream by limiting it down to a 1K stream :evilsmile:
