| 500264 | 2006-11-18 08:12:00 | Hello everybodee! Wondering if anyone could tell me whether it is possible to allocate bandwidth, evenly or otherwise, to the 2 computers on our network. Basically when we are downloading through utorrent and azureus surfing of the net is extremely slow, even when scale back the speeds on the bit torrent clients. We are run our network through a linksys WAG54GP2. Any comments appreciated. cheers Ron |

| 500265 | 2006-11-18 08:53:00 | a bandwidth shaper like netlimiter would work... it lets you define bandwidth per program both ul/dl | panther2 (11440) | ||

| 500267 | 2006-11-19 19:34:00 | Thanks for that guys. I probably should of been a bit clearer...What I'm hoping to do is be able to limit my flatmates computer to half of our available bandwidth. The issue is when he d/l on say bit torrent, even if its only going at say, 5kb, playing online SOF2 is near on impossible. I've d/l netlimiter, which seems to bew quite a good program, but am I able to allocate each device on our network with it. I will also look into QOS on my router. |
