Hi All,<br />
<br />
I need to limit the bandwith of 1 PC and do NOT want to use software on a client to control it. I want a hardware solution. If possible with a Linksys or Netgear router.<br />
<br />
This is downstream QOS control, but I cannot find if that is possible hardware based.<br />
<br />
I have a download bandwith of 2MB and want to limit that PC to the max. usage of 1MB or 50%.<br />
<br />
Is that possible?

Is it possible to limit the bandwith with a router so a certain PC cannot use up all the bandwith

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.

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Networking

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.
