Limiting the bandwidth

[NocturnDragon]

I have computer with different OS connected in the same network.
They share a 56.6 modem connection that is located on WIN 2000.

The problem is that anytime i download something using DAP or Kazaa, my computer eats up all the bandwidth and other computers can't almost even download some simple internet pages.

Is there a way to reserve some part of bandwith for a specified computer?

Or in another way is there a way to limit the bandwith usage of a application or a whole computer?

No, i cannot change the connection type, no dsl here yet!

I believe there are options in Kaaza where you can set the bandwidth throttling. You should give it a peek.

Nocturn, e' un casino farlo. Se il 2000 e' un 2000 server allora puoi provare ad impostare l'uso della banda, ma e' complicato.

Altrimenti l'unico altro modo e' con una macchina Linux che fa' da gateway, e anche qui la faccenda e' cosi' complicata che c'e' parecchia gente che piuttosto che mettersi a fare un lavoro del genere si taglierebbe le palle.



Per inciso, cmq, con WinMX puoi limitare la banda usata. Con Kazaa assolutamente no...
