865629 2010-03-10 06:13:00 Hi, is there a way to limit the amount of internet (gb and mb) that a device uses? ie one laptop is allocated 1gb. icow (15313)
865630 2010-03-10 07:06:00 Yup, a router running the Tomato Firmware, there's a mod that lets you do just that :)

Otherwise you could head out and buy yourself one of NetComm's HotSpot Systems, the HS1100, it also does the same, but costs a truckload more.

Not without a fairly complex setup... it would take a lot more than it's worth. There is a company selling routers preconfigured with quota software but that's about it.
