I live in a house with 9 other people. With 8 of them I share my internet connection (wireless). I'm looking for a hardwarerouter which has a bandwidth limiter/traffic shaper per IP/mac. I'd rather have a webinterface or something than using telnet to configure the router. So it has to be simple, and of course not too expensive :). It needs to be just a router (or maybe a switch included), not an access point included. I also need port forwarding for people who want to use bittorrent or whatever, but if you know a better solution for this problem, then that's ok too.<br />
<br />
I will submit points to the person that submits the most suitable router for my needs.<br />
<br />
Thank you,<br />

hardwarerouter with bandwidth limiter/traffic shaper per IP/mac

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
