752631 2009-03-02 01:24:00 I've got 2 NICs in my computer. One's connected to a router/modem that provides internet access to the computer and several others on the wired network.
The other NIC is connected to a wireless router that provides internet access access to a couple of wireless-equipped laptops.

What I want to do is control the bandwidth through the wireless because the wireless users (homestay students) are chewing through my monthly broadband allocation too quickly. I'm not worried about controlling bandwidth on the wired network because I know all the users (my kids) are not using too much.

Any suggestions about how best to achieve this?
